53′ Well Car
ABOUT THIS RAILCAR
TrinityRail®’s extensive railcar product portfolio has a complete line of intermodal equipment, including a 53-foot three-unit articulated well car optimized for transporting single- or double-stacked ISO containers. Designed for durability and long-term serviceability, the car features S-227-compliant, impact-resistant container access (top chord) boards mounted to fastening brackets rather than welded directly to the top chords, providing both superior impact resistance and easier maintenance if damage occurs.
