Gunderson Maxi-IV 3-unit Articulated Container Car
- Production Model Sample

The Maxi-Stack IV car is a mainstay of the United States domestic double-stack car fleet because it provides the optimum balance between tare weight and capacity. It is a three unit articulated double-stack car that can handle containers from 20' to 53' long in the well and containers from 40' to 57' in the top position. The Maxi-Stack IV utilizes 70-ton end trucks and 125- ton intermediate trucks. It has a capacity of 116,800 pounds per well.


Like our Twinstack and Maxi-III, these cars are ready for the rails and can be stored loaded or empty in their original package. The first release (TTX) will be available in 2 different road numbers and is scheduled for release in late 2005 < size="-2" face="Times New Roman">(with a little luck).

Item Description
 

Stock Checks:

Inventory is a fluid commodity.  It changes by the hour (sometimes by the minute). To retain our pricing structure we maintain stock levels designed to turnover 6 times each year. We cannot guarantee stock status till we have an order in hand. All product is subject to prior sale. If we confirm that we have it, and, while we are waiting for the order it sells, you would be upset that we did not hold it.
We used to hold items but learned a VERY EXPENSIVE lesson. When we held items for customers’ orders, the order never materialized 80%+ of the time.  We lost out on the orders placed while the item was on hold.  Also we wasted staff time that could have been used to pull actual orders.
Since we are well known for finding older stock the fact that it may not be on our shelves at this minute does not mean we can’t get it. So, as we spell out on our terms pages, we don’t do it anymore. You may, however, call in and we will tell you if the items are available and if possible attempt to locate what we don’t have while you are on the phone.
