This photograph shows a Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway Company's piggy-back trailer at an unidentified location. In the railroad industry the trailer travels on flat cars, (TOFC), commonly referred to as a piggy-back service. This intermodal form of transpiration, between the railroad and trucking services allows for freight to be delivered in half the time.
