Behold... space based intermodal! Using standardized containers, the

This is pretty cool. I really like the gantry made out of fence elements. Your
choice of Scout Trooper as foreperson is something I found a bit strange - is
this a Star Wars MOC, or is he about to leave for the staff fancy dress party?

Your container design is good, I like it how the connection point can take a
2-stud axle so as to connect them together in a chain. I’ve made some containers
of my own for a cargo-based MOC:
Mine open from the side because I wanted them to be openable while connected. I
also thought that 6-wide internally would allow for a greater variety of cargo;
the designs shown above are only wider than 8 studs for cosmetic reasons (which
would probably rule them out for trains).
Cheers,
