Well cars like these are used for moving shipping containers by rail and are a common sight on modern railroads. This car can carry 4 standard Stormworks shipping containers in a double-stack configuration. It also features WABSIM brakes and is compatible with other WABSIM equipment.
To minimize SW physics jank, it is recommended to load the containers as follows. Connectors should be turned on one at a time to ensure the containers snap to the right subgrid.
1. Turn off the bottom connectors on each container and the railcar connectors.
2. Load the bottom container into the well car, and ensure the bottom connectors are aligned. Ensure the top connectors on the container are off.
3. If double stacking containers, place the second container on top of the first, bottom connectors off. Disconnect the top connectors.
4. Connect the stacked containers to each other first. Turn on the lower container top connectors, and upper container bottom connectors. Wait for them to snap together.
5. Enable the bottom connectors on the bottom container.
6. Turn on the railcar connectors. If you did it right, the containers should gently lock into place.

PS: I plan to build more locomotives, but I want to expand my fleet of S&S rollingstock first.
