Ah ha!!! I was wondering when you were going to find one of these 950 series containers. To start from the very beginning wkth these 950 series containers, Swift first started purchasing these containers late last summer. Last year, Swift purchased 600 of these containers. They were manufactured by ^ingamas, and are in the number series that goes from 950000-950599. They were built over a three month period, which consisted of July, August, and September. Containers 950000(950199, were built in July. Containers 950200-950299, are all by themselves for August. Containers 950300-950599, were built in September. This container here, that you photographed, is fairly new, as for being built in January by Singamas. The newest Swift Intermodal containers that I've seen, are in the 949700 series. Those containers too, are manufactured by Singamas, but, those were built last month. This photo is very good, and these containers look great, when they're brand new.
