Why so many single level container stack cars? Running south? overhead clearance restrictions? cheers!

Jim Blaze Single stacks at this time of year could be grain being exported in containers. Too heavy per well to doublestack.

Guess now is the time to shoot pictures and videos of the KCS. Date: 09/13/20 05:29 Re: KCS precision railroading Author: TM1992 For a while KCS I caught “PSR” trains on the Laredo sub. Mostly doubling up empty unit trains. Longer than the newly built sidings.
