Pat, this photo tells a story. Both of these containers were manufactured by CIMC. The top 232114, was built in July 2006, and the bottom 267119 is practically brand new, as for being built in June. If you look at how the JBHU 267119 is on the front of that container, you might think that this container was manufactured by Singamas, as for having everything on one line. CIMC usually has the JBHU on top of the number, as shown with the top container. But, with the bottom container lettering, this is something new. I remember when I came across a 266500 series container, from a far it looked like a Singamas type. I was surprised to see that it was manufactured by CIMC. Also too, with the JBHU 267119 and the way it's displayed on the front, even though it looks like a Singamas type, you can see that the lettering and numbers are a little closer together than they are with the Singamas ones.
