Can anyone post pics of containers on trains of other countries, specifically Asian and European railroads? I’m sure doublsetacks don’t exist outside of North America, but I’d like to see how these familiar boxes we see on our trains look like overseas. Are some container trains in China
pulled by steam locos?
If so that would be an awesome pic.
Here ya go…

Here are a few from Switzerland
The Finnish Railway VR run doublestacks between the port of Helsinki and Rihimaki.
Saudi Railways began operating double-stack between Dammam and Riyadh in 2005.
Chinese steam is essentially gone from main lines so the prospect of seeing containers behind steam in that country is unlikely.
