Who knows? At the rate things are going, we might end up with 50 foot tall container stack trains in a few decades! I guess the greatest limiting factor is the impossibly high center of gravity. Even loading gauge ultimately wasn’t a complete obstacle with today’s double stack container well cars and three tiered auto racks. The Class 1 railroads have either rerouted or rebuilt major lines to accommodate larger freight cars.
