Railbox Company (reporting marks ABOX, FBOX, RBOX, TBOX), founded in 1974, is a North American boxcar pooling company, and a subsidiary of the North Carolina–based TTX Company.[1] It was created to address a boxcar shortage in the United States in the 1970s.[1]
The concept behind Railbox, as evidenced by the slogan, "Next Load, Any Road" was, because Railbox was jointly owned by many of the railroads as a privately owned cooperative, these boxcars were not subject to load/empty rules. Railbox cars could be assigned for service on any railroad in Canada, Mexico and the United States on lines where an AAR Plate-C loading gauge is permitted. Railbox purchased boxcars from many manufacturers, including American Car and Foundry Company, FMC Corporation, and Pullman-Standard (P-S).
