- U. S. Steel, Norfolk Southern and Greenbrier have joined together to introduce new, high-strength steel for the railcar market. Watch to learn how this idea came to life, then visit: www.go.gbrx.com/gondola
Thank you for a great railcar. These are great to ride in.
You can't really ride in the gondolas legally.
@@katherinemorey6517 depends on where you work. These ones are better to ride on than older ones

Good to see the railroad spending money on the next generation rail car instead of worrying about rather they'll have crews to haul them🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
You know that old cars MUST be retired after a certain number of years, right? Something has to replace them.
Good Idea. Next step is production offshore.
Most US owned frieghtcars are made in the USA.
Why in the hell would you manufacture railcars in the ocean? Lmao.
I think you should worry more about if NS would actually be willing to properly service them
My friend she pose on the train connections and she loved it
How much does the N scale version cost?
I think gondolas should be articulated for efficiency and safety like the inter modal cars and I know how you can make safer tank cars of the future, by articulating them so theydon't jack-knife in derailments. Cory Mears
Obviously you never had to pick up a 5 section articulated railcar. Jack knives happen in derailments anyway, even if you don't want it to. Articulated tank cars, oh wonderful !!! Dump those and see how much spillage you have. :)
I am just wondering if you could make a new light weight gondola for U.P. & BNSF & CSX but in the form of a large gondola that is almost as tall as the locomotives so they can probably replace 2 smaller ones with the 1 big car. If they can replace every 2 small gondolas with 1 large gondola, that would mean half the floors, walls, springs, couplings, wheels, bogies, brakes, and roller bearings and less weight, that would mean fewer trucks, less gas, fewer crashes, less smoke, less money to spend, less maintenance, more time on the mainline, less noise, fewer engines, more profits, fewer breakdowns, fewer collisions, less waiting at the crossings for the trains to pass, less global warming, healthier lungs, fewer people being late for work, school, and birthday parties. All of this because of fewer but larger gondolas with twice the amount of space that the customers can use in less time. If you do, please give me some credit for the idea. Thanks, Cory Mears
You can't really make a gondola that tall legally.
Modern freight car maximum weight is 286000 lbs so your request isn't possible without replacing alot of RR infastructure,not to mention scrap gons that large would more than likely be "topheavy".
Greenbrier already produces 62 foot, 7100 cubic foot wood chip gondolas that are over 15 feet tall. Other manufacturers (like National Steel Car) produce cars of similar dimensions specifically for scrap metal service. In fact, I just saw about a dozen of them in Corpus Christi, TX this last weekend.
@@XxMasterSasorixX Tall gondolas have been around since the late 50's or early 60's in the form of woodchip cars.
@@whiteknightcatThank you for your help with explaining. Cory Mears
you building these cars in Mexico too?
i may have a better/superior dead-simple design which may result in a "poor man's MagLev" which should lead to fast yet safe reliable economical operations.... Shorter development & integration times.... Faster ROI.
What does ROI mean?
@@katherinemorey6517 hi. Whenever investments are being considered the investors are always keen to know when they will have a Return On their Investment. For example, if they invest a billion, how much will they get in return & by when.
Patent pending!
So one guy said they were building new 'caws'. If you spell their language the way they say it, they could not read it and make sense of it.
What hole in the ground do you live in, that you've never heard a British accent?
