40-Foot Corrugated Trailers in Railroad Piggyback Service
Before the widespread adoption of modern shipping containers, trailer-on-flatcar (TOFC) service played an important role in moving freight between highways and railroads. Railroads transported highway trailers aboard specially equipped flatcars, combining the flexibility of truck transportation with the long-distance efficiency of rail service.
Forty-foot trailers were commonly associated with this earlier generation of intermodal transportation. Their corrugated side construction, compact dimensions, and railroad or trucking company markings made them a familiar sight at piggyback terminals, industrial facilities, and freight yards. For modelers recreating these operations, Trainworx trailers provide an opportunity to add appropriate highway equipment alongside their model railroad equipment.
