ABSTRACT:
A container car is provided having a depressed center section for carrying bulk lading such as stacked containers. Transverse bulkheads at opposite ends of the car maintain bulk lading from moving longitudinally relative to the car. Side sills are provided on each side of the car of simple design which is easy to fabricate and assemble. The transverse bulkheads include supports which transfer lading loads from the upper portion of the bulkhead down into the side sill and into the end portion of the car, and also transmit longitudinal impact and squeeze loads between the end portion of the car and the side sills in the center section.
