Abstract
A container (41) has adjustable-span support posts (52)—to accommodate load height diversity and to meet external tunnel gauge through passage constraints—upstanding from a deck (46), with extendible post elements (53)—by multiple indexed, connector bar latching—carrying capture and handling fittings (54), accessed by localised extension above a load. Optional transverse post bracing is through a header beam (55), with optional arched profile, and/or coupled gate pairs upon opposed posts.
