Thrall Rebuilt 40' Well Car Trailer Trn., Walthers 910-8410, DTTX, RN 53240

Description: A well car, also known as a double-stack car (or also intermodal car/container car), is a type of railroad car specially designed to carry intermodal containers (shipping containers) used in intermodal freight transport. The "well" is depressed section that sits close to the rails between the wheel trucks of the car, allowing a container to be carried lower than on a traditional flatcar. This makes it possible to carry a stack of two containers per unit on railway lines (double-stack rail transport) wherever the structure gauge assures sufficient clearance. Starting in 2003 Thrall began a rebuilding program that shortened the wells to the standard 40' well cars. Today they can be seen carrying 20' and 40' containers in the well, with 40' and 53' units on top.
