PASSING TRAINS PT 37; NYCKC701NS PT 4

 The conclusion of NYCKC701NS...

The second well of the AOK car has a MSC (Mediterranean Shipping Co.) box atop a HMM (Hyundai Merchant Marine) box. The next well has a CMA-CGM box atop an orange NYK box.
The next two wells feature another CMA-CGM box atop a Don Fang, with a another MSC box atop a brown (leased) UASC box.
The final car is another rebuilt 5-unit Thrall well car, this time with the original TTX logo. The two APL containers are topped by a Hapag Lloyd open top and yet another CMA-CGM box.
Another heavily faded China Shipping 45' box rides another brown UASC box ( the normal UASC color is green). This container, like the other one is leased from Triton. A pair of APL boxes follow; the top one is a high-cube and is a slightly different shade of blue from the standard-height one beneath it.
The final well has another Hapag Lloyd open top and yet another CMA-CGM box. Note the "eco container" graphic, seen on some of these containers; they have bamboo flooring, which is considered more environmentally sustainable than conventional wood flooring. Bamboo grows much faster than most other plants; some species can grow several feet a week!
