The Vert-a-Pacs were well known at the time. Background of that photo has something I didn't remember at first: Stac-Pac. Looks like they were trying to containerize shipping of larger cars, replacing the traditional auto-racks, as well. Something else that probably would have warmed Kneiling's heart (containerize everything, then use Integral Trains), but went nowhere in the trade (cheaper to hire drivers to get the vehicles onto autoracks than to move containers around, I guess).
