Tom,

Wanted a few chassis for the container yard anyway.

Now to try and make a container crane to lift these bad boys off the 
railcar.

CN Newfoundland had a great system. Some of the chassis had their own 
lifting device. Tractor and trailor pulled up beside the railcar, the arms 
reached over onto the flat and lifted the container off and onto the 
chassis. This could be extended for 40' and shortened to 20'. Also had the 
usual front end container loaders and I assume there is nothing out there 
yet!!

Any idea when these containers will be out?

Andrew
