We have a CN tri-axle like that in Marion. It can go from 40' to 53'.
Where was this picture taken? Our company has a storage facility in Memphis and we loaded several just like that. I think they were taking them to...

[ATTACH] I had to fix this gem today. I work with idiots.

Here's a tip if you pull 53's: If your container isn't sitting all the way down on the back, but the twistlocks are straight, try sliding your...
