This is an intermodal 5-well, articulated, container-only double-stack railcar.
The container capability of this railcar is two 20' containers or one 40' container in the
bottom position of units A anad B, and one 40' container in the bottom position of units C, D, and E. Any of the units
can carry one 40', one 45', or one 48' container in the top position. The railcar itself is articulated, meaning there
are 100-ton trucks in the intermediate positions, and 70-ton trucks at each end.
It is of the DS-3 class, and of the TWG50B TTX-class.
