Looks like another Seacell unit, a 40ft PWHC again(4EG1 is a 40ft pallet wide).. I know there was/is an Axis leasing(bachmann did a model of their 13.6m units), guessing this is one of their sea containers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Dangerous Posted October 31, 2022 Author Share Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) Boluda / Triton box in Fañabe this morning. Refurbishing the hotel in the background so obviously contains stuff for them. Edited October 31, 2022 by DJ Dangerous 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Dangerous Posted October 31, 2022 Author Share Posted October 31, 2022 And a lovely HC 20' OPDR box last Wednesday morning by CC Gran Sur in Torviscas. @Arran Doesn't do 20' HC's so he suggests cutting down a 40' HC to model this. Width and ribs would be wrong but the look would definitely be correct. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murphaph Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 I love the mixing of units in the warning panel. It's like Irish roads until recently, distances in km and speed limits in mph. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Dangerous Posted October 31, 2022 Author Share Posted October 31, 2022 Passed a fabulous Boluda 40' earlier, the rust and damage would have made for a great photo, but it had vanished when I passed by again a few hours later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a shorter line that criss crosses the main line, between Tincer and La Cuesta. Fifteen years old this year. Nice green belt running through the city.

DJ Dangerous Posted November 22, 2022 Author Share Posted November 22, 2022 Cute little TESU box (TESU-2189890) in the poligono industrial of Adeje on October 4th this year. A 22G1 is supposed to be 20' x 8' x 8'6", but this one has some sort of warning panel on the side, like a HC would. Maybe the panel says 2.6m. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOGUL Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Looks like a standard 20ft 8ft 6 box, 33.2CBM on the door confirms it.. The sign looks like a caution 8ft 6in one, must be a very old box(can't make out on the CSC plate on the door) Were you there hunting strays? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL, no, won't be doing much hunting this side of Christmas / Reyes! Just happened to be walking past and saw it. Also see quite a few WEC boxes lately, like this one across the road from Paloma Beach in Los Cristianos today. The doors are a wierd shape. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOGUL Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 The doors on the Wec boxes have inset handles, that’s why the door looks strange from the inside.. this showed up in Ballina today, 20ft with 8ft 6 in yellow square like your TESU box 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Dangerous Posted November 25, 2022 Author Share Posted November 25, 2022 Is that why the WEC doors are curved at the top and bottom instead of straight? That DFSU box looks nicely battered, just like the TESU one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A P&O NedLloyd box (PONU-7348565) by the golf course in Adeje. A retired 12,2m (40') long, 2,4m (8') wide and 2,9m (9'6") tall HC drybox by the look of it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
