A commodity trailer for storage and transport of a commodity, and provided with a lighting system. The commodity trailer can include a tub in which the commodity is stored and transported, wherein the tub includes at least one wall that is sloped from a first elevation to an opening beneath the tub at a second elevation lower than the first elevation to funnel the commodity toward the opening, and wherein the opening has a plurality of sides; a frame extending along at least one side of the opening; and a lamp mounted to the frame, wherein the lamp is positioned and oriented to direct light upon an area beneath the opening into which commodity from the tub flows upon exiting the opening.

A method of constructing a cargo body, including providing a first cargo body panel having a main portion with a thickness and providing a second cargo body panel. Further, forming a post portion in the first cargo body panel integrally with the main portion and forming a base portion of the post portion. Additionally, forming a distal portion of the post portion that is located a distance from the base portion that is substantially greater than the thickness of the main portion. In addition, overlapping at least part of the first cargo body panel over the second cargo body panel.

Cargo body construction

A top casting for stacking frames of cargo containers. The top casting has an aperture for stacking and top picking non-standard cargo containers. The top casting also has a cavity that is configured to allow for the insertion and rotation of a standard top-picking device. The top casting positions the aperture near the outboard wall of the cargo container to reduce moment stresses caused by stacking and lifting. The outboard wall of the casting is provided with an internal recess adequate to allow the rotation of a lifting device head after it has been inserted into the cavity of the top casting. The aperture of each top casting is capable of receiving a top picking device and its axis is located at a distance no greater than 3 inches from the outboard wall of the cargo container so as to position the aperture as near as possible to the stacking post.
