Title:
No one would have believed you
Description:
Ten years earlier, if you had suggested to anyone that the NYSW would not only be running coast to coast container trains, but would also have a fleet of stack cars, they would have thought you were totally nuts. Yet in 1988, I watch as a stack car with NYSW reporting marks pulls away from me in western NY, on a train headed for a west coast port. Railroading sure is strange. These are the Gunderson cars, which differ from the well cars in that they have a bulkhead that holds the top box in place, as opposed to it being locked to the bottom container as is done with the well car.
