Mike Berka General You have a good combination here, because both of these containers tell a story. They were both manufactured by Singamas. The top 271037 was built in August 2011, and the bottom 242053 was built in September 2007. The 271 series containers must have taken a long time to build, because the entire group of 1,000 were built between August 2011 and January 2012. Containers 271000-271199 were built in August. Containers 271200-271299 are all by themselves, as for being built in October. Containers 271300-271499 were built in November. Containers 271500-271699 were built in December. Containers 271700-271999 were built in January 2012. As for the 242 series containers, all of these were built in September 2007, but they only go as high as 242559. For some reason, containers 242560-242999 were never built. 9/1/2012 10:58:24 PM
