Atlas has announced the Premier 50 ft Gunderson High Cube Box Cars

With an interior height of about 13 feet - 2 feet more than a standard box car - this car is known as a “hi-roof” or “high cube” car for its high cubic capacity. White end panels make railroad crews aware of its extra height, which prevents it from traveling in some areas.

This 50’ 100-ton car is designed specifically for the modern printing industry, which uses large rolls of paper too big for standard box cars. Side-to-floor joints and doorframes are reinforced to accommodate the heavy weight of paper rolls. Longer 60’ versions of this design are widely used for transporting parts for car manufacturing.

Two road numbers are available per road name except GATX Heritage and TTX (On Track for A Cure) which have only one.
