Cheers Mike.
As to size or wagon type, I claim Rule 8

 

[C&S]

I know nothing about continental Europe. Do they have wagons that just move 20 ft boxes in real life?

I have a published picture somewhere of a 20ft container on a four-wheeled wagon (poosibly an old coach chassis). This was in SW France on a standard gauge independent line back in the 1960s or possibly the early 1970s. It happened, but was certainly not mainstream.

BTW - really like the Safmarine container.

Rule 8 - absolutely right!
Little detail, just FYI, the label "Bahnmeisterwagen" on the side could be translated with "Railway engineering carriage".
Of course no one knows why Newqida put it there...

This kitbashing idea is great if you wanna get a whole train together without being broke...
