I understand that any of the J B Hunt containers and highway skeleton 
trailers were built so they would not mesh with anyone else's. However, this 
is the first I have heard of a difference involving containers alone going 
onto the railcars. DJE

I think what we're talking about here is simply traffic patterns.  To the 
best of my limited knowledge, all ISO-standardized containers can be placed 
one above the other.  It's a matter of domestic and ocean containers having 
different origins and destinations.  A train with a load of containers from 
an ocean ship would probably not have domestic containers mixed in.  But it 
doesn't take too long to find exceptions, poking around Matt's website.

I shall have to research this further.
