John,
Potential sources for an answer might be :
http://www.intermodaltransport.com
which covers intermodal transport history and technology, and the model intermodal group SIG:
http:www.modelintermodel.com
and the
Yahoo!
model intermodal group. If you found prototype dimensions,
you might have to modify them to compensate for tighter track curvature on
model railroads. Please post what you learn from your research.
