Prototype: The "megafret" container car was developed for the transportation of high cube containers. These containers have corner heights of 2.80 and sometimes 3.20 m. Transfesa's slide-wall containers are 45 feet long. The "megafret" wagons are loaded with standard containers and can hold up to four 20-foot containers. The container cars can travel at speeds of up to 140 km/h and the unit has a load capacity of 87 t. The wagons are used on all European railways, including the UK.
