53' Container Detail Photos

My full time employment affords me access to 53' containers in occasion. Here are selected detail photos.

 My full time employment as a manager at Harbor Freight often requires me to unload trailers, on occasion we get HUB Group containers of they're short on trailers. It's becoming less common as HUB dedicated a pool of trailers to this service, but here are some select photos for modeling reference.

Both red, and green HUB containers.

Check out the interior color! With Aurora and PT Trains making 20', 40' and 45' containers, hopefully soon we'll see 53' containers with opening doors, then we can model these interiors!

And check out this wall patch tape. I'm guessing it's a similar product to what Nascar uses for damaged cars during a race.
