These cars are designed to carry multiple heavy containers. Due to the open deck construction, the light weight capacity has been kept very low, there by increasing the loaded capacity of the car. These cars can carry two 40' containers or four 20' containers. They are ideally suited for municipal waste business and designed to accommodate 12' high containers.

Built by Greenbrier Companies in 2000, in operating condition, some of the details include: Length over end sill 85' 2.5", width over side sills 9'1", length over couplers 90' 6.5", Extreme width 9' 10 1/4", truck centers 66', AAR plate C, Height from top of rail to pedestal support 47", Length weight 60,000 lbs, Gross rail load 286,000, Load limit 226,000. Curve negotiability radius: Uncoupled 180', Coupled to like car 241', Coupled to 40' base car 350'. 66 cars available.
