At least Panama doesn't have all those environmental regs and NIMBY brigades to drag the project out for a few more decades, you know, like we do here in the US of A. As for what containerships might look like in a decade, it might be that the catamaran principle is applied to current designs to effectively double their capacity while maintaining most of the current hull specs and a single crew.  Of course, this "wider is better" concept would make all the world's ship canals obsolete. The way I see it, by 2015 all the NA railroads will have been "Conrailed" in some form or another, and if OA is still the principal in Europe and Australia, it will have made it's way here by then.  Which means the current focus on ISO double stacks will have become obsolete to the new NA railroad marketplace.
