An IBC storage box assembly is elevated from a railcar. A vertical beam is used to elevate the storage box off the railcar so that the storage box is more easily accessed from a rail platform. Additionally, the vertical beam may provide some clearance for the storage box so that the storage box is not impacted by the railcar coupler during transport.

A cryogenic railway tank car includes an outer tank, an inner tank positioned within the outer tank, an internal nozzle, and a pipe. The inner tank includes a shell that defines an opening. The internal nozzle is coupled to the inner tank at least along a perimeter of the opening and extends in a radial direction through the opening and into the inner tank. A space defined by an interior surface of the outer tank, an exterior surface of the inner tank, and an interior surface of the nozzle is configured to hold a vacuum. The pipe is configured to transport the fluid between an exterior of the outer tank and the interior of the inner tank. At least a portion of the pipe extends from the outer tank to the inner tank through at least a portion of the nozzle.

A tank includes a cone-shaped wall formed of steel and attached between a first dome-shaped surface formed of steel and a second dome-shaped surface formed of steel. The cone-shaped wall attached between the first dome-shaped surface and the second dome-shaped surface defines an oval-shape void of angled corners on the inside surface of tank such that, when a product contained in the tank is displaced, the product is displaced in a torus shaped vortex between the first dome-shaped surface and the second dome-shaped surface.

According to some embodiments, a hatch cover for an opening in a container comprises a body comprising a plate member for covering the opening in the container, a seal on the underside of the body for sealing the body to the container, and one or more pressure sensors disposed between the seal and the body. The one or more pressure sensors are operable to detect a pressure between the body and the container and are communicably coupled to a hatch status device operable to detect a change in pressure between the body and the container. Some embodiments may include a fill level sensor.
