Nice!
Now I know they say tractor not included, but why render it if you are not making it? It looks like it may be a Road Commander which we need badly. I wonder if we will see one in plasic rather than resin like the container and chassis.
There's a shyness found in reason
Apprehensive influence swallow away
You seem to feel abysmal take it
Then you're careful grace for sure
Kinda like the way you're breathing
Kinda like the way you keep looking away

Wow...   These were around as storage sheds and other uses for a long time after they left service...

It's the money-shot to sell product...duh. I mean that picture wouldnt be all that awesome if it was a trailer just floating there. And if you're gonna complain about the tractor what about the container chassis too?

:D

Need 
a dozen.  Might buy three dozen if the original SP intermodals (that were set up for 35/40 footers) were coming along...

Sweet! But we really do need a (1960s) tractor to pull the darn thing.

Some interesting proto images on The Intermodal Container Web Page (http://www.matts-place.com/intermodal/part4/35foot.htm)

Modern modelers might also have a use for these, as some appear to have been converted to canvas-topped containers to haul contaminated soil.
