Yeah I googled Rich Food it is/was a supermarket chain in Virginia and others


but


why a skid car? Did they sell Logs/pipes or Culverts there?

I figured since there was a hopper with it the set was pulled either by a tank engine or F7 Did they make a refer (that would make more sense)for Rich Food?

Any info on Grocery Store set Anywhere?

I would guess that the skid flat is there simply because it was one of Tyco's standbies that was good for adding meat to set
