    That’s great news!

    Gene showed several of us the “beta version” of the container earlier and this fills a void in our needs from 1956-1962 or so. I understand Baltimore and Ohio also went for the same “Demounrable” concept as Mopac but the Pennsy and affiliates (N&W for example) started Trailer Train and were adamant that all use their standards. New York Central was going full steam ahead with Flexi-Van at that time.
