Pacific Fruit Express (PFE), founded in 1906, was a joint venture between the Union Pacific (UP) and Southern Pacific (SP) railroads and at one point was the largest refrigerator car operator in the world. It began with a fleet of 6,600 refrigerator cars built by the American Car and Foundry Company (ACF). In 1923, the Western Pacific Railroad (WP) joined the enterprise by leasing its own new fleet of 2775 reefers to PFE.
The WP cars were all retired by the late 1950s, among the last wooden reefers in PFE's fleet. WP ended its partnership with PFE in late 1967 and joined Fruit Growers Express (FGE) instead. PFE's assets were divided between the UP and SP when the company was split in 1978. In 1996 the SP Railroad became part of the UP Railroad and PFE is now a UP subsidiary
