      abstract = {Excerpt from the report:  Shipments of cantaloups from  western producing areas to eastern markets have been  affected by two major changes in transit conditions--load  sizes have been increased and transit times have been  reduced.  Rail tests with the new schedules and loads were  conducted from 1958 to 1961 to determine (1) if the  conventional refrigeration service was adequate for the  heavier loads, and (2) if refrigeration services less  expensive than the conventional service would provide  adequate refrigeration for the faster schedules.  These  tests were part of a broad program of research aimed at  maintaining quality of farm products during marketing.},
