Did scrap run in unit trains too or exclusively as "filler" in the liners? Always as part of the liner never in a block train as such. 1 Quote
johnfromoz Posted September 18, 2022 Posted September 18, 2022 On the topic of container liveries and timeframes and ‘fallen flag’ containers, I recently observed via a mid ‘22 YouTube video of intermodals at Stafford UK. (Thanks Antman) nothing less than a GENSTAR marked 40’ oxide coloured box in current service on a Manchester-Felixstowe service. Box relatively unblemished, in good but faded colours. Happy to be proven wrong, but think this livery was superceded in 1998 with the buyout by Seaco. So while some of us fret about liveries and timeframes there are still ‘prototype for anything’ moments in the world of containers. John 4 Quote
