| the plus is with moulded sides and ends then you can make any arrangement you wish, i totally agree that making a 'box' would be dull - which is why i said plasticard shell !
and irregular loading would be far more realistic..... again as said the tie bars could be moulded in too- i mould portacabins and shipping containers in N scale both has cross tie bars moulded in , there is no reason why these cant be added in 00 scale....
you could always buy a few of the irregular types to all to the realism, say buy a few 'tank containers' and maybe some of the 20ft containers that have the tarpaulin tops ( top loaders) and stuff to make a change and add to the realism, 00 scale decals are also readily available too so you can have your mearsk, evergreen and cosco containers too !
