The photographs below have been borrowed from the "Port Drivers" FB page, and depict what appears to be an RTG moving a 40' container into or out of a service lane at APMT Port Elizabeth, NJ yesterday. One corner of the container, however, is unsupported.... given the apparent absence of one of the spreader's twist locks.
Looking at that particular corner, it's unclear where that twist lock might be. Was it sheared off? If so, did it remain within the container's corner fitting? If it fell, where did it land?
Anyone with reasonable answers is invited to respond.........
