Like
its cousin, the Gunderson MAXI-IV, the MAXI-I is a multi-unit well car designed
to carry two stacked intermodal shipping containers. While its base well is 40',
it can accept larger containers such as 45', 48' and even 53' in the top position,
making the car a versatile addition to a railroad's intermodal services. The MAXI-I
is a five-unit well car, unlike its 53' cousin, giving each car a greater capacity
even though the individual wells are a smaller size. | |
- Provides
stable operation with or without container loads due to Katos new innovative
heavier material steel compound plastic used for the construction of the well
cars.
- Each
container has a magnet and a metal plate to hold it securely to the well car bottom
or to the top of the lower Kato container.
- KATO
magnetic knuckle couplers will allow automatic coupling and uncoupling action.
- Each
set will include ten removable 40-foot containers which are compatible with other
Kato container sets and Maxi-IV Well Cars.
- Kato
packaging will be designed for the separated storage of the articulated unit,
providing ease and security when not in use.
- The
MAXI-I has resiliant plastic connectors between the wells that allow for easy
connecting and disengaging for both operation and storage.
