What exactly did I take a picture of?

Those may not be new chassis. They may well be, i believe after looking through my MR book on intermodal modeling, container spine trailers, there is a picture of a very similar looking container spine trailer, albeit with BN lettering in the book. I would assume that it may be a way of getting trailers from one port to another cheaper/quicker than hauling then across-country behind a tractor unit. <br />there is also a picture of a large, very odd looking forklift type truck in the book with row after row of these type of chassis stacked up behind it in an ope-air storage facility so i would assume that they may also use something similar to that to load it onto the car.
