Seatrain Lines was a shipping company most responsible for the introduction of the standard international intermodal container, most commonly 8 feet (2.4 m) high by 8 feet wide by 40 feet (12 m) long. This ignited an explosion in world trade, though the ups and downs in that trade made it very difficult for companies to ride the business.

Famous quotes containing the word lines:
“Called as partners in Christ’s service,
Called to ministries of grace,
We respond with deep commitment
Fresh new lines of faith to trace.
May we learn the art of sharing,
Side by side and friend with friend,
Equal partners in our caring
To fulfill God’s chosen end.”
—Jane Parker Huber (b. 1926)
