Trailer Train Growth Steady Milestone in Piggyback System
ACF industries installed its 30,000th trailer hitch on a flat car at the St. Louis plant for Trailer Train Company. The hitch, developed over a decade, secures highway trailers to flat cars used in piggyback service, which has grown since 1956 and accounted for millions of truck movements in 1966, with carloadings about 4 percent ahead of last year’s pace.
