It worked… but it wasn’t efficient. The cars were heavy, clunky, and wasting valuable capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"362\" data-end=\"465\"\u003eSo in the 1970s, engineers had a better idea: strip the car down to only what was absolutely necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"467\" data-end=\"496\"\u003eThe result was the spine car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"498\" data-end=\"813\"\u003eWith its narrow center beam design, the spine car revolutionized intermodal service—lighter weight, more cargo, and longer, more efficient trains. Before long, these cars evolved into articulated sets, becoming a staple of modern freight railroading and a familiar sight in intermodal consists across North America.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"815\" data-end=\"1024\"\u003eBowser captures that innovation perfectly with their Executive Line Trinity 53' Spine Car.
