When I am bored I do research, my latest foray into the library of the Internet I was awarded with lovely pictures of what you may do with shipping containers.

Below are examples

Types of Shipping Containers

It also got me to thinking of the kind of stuff most Shipping Containers contain and it is a staggering choice. 

Lasthope has old [url=http://cdn.onlyinyourstate.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/11569419884_502ee7e482_k1-700x463.jpg]Number 19[/url] a Steam Train and it along with several diesel trains till they ran out of fuel and we used them to collect as many loaded containers or their loads as could be found with minimal fighting; 19 is still engaged in the retrieval of industrial equipment that can be operated off the Hydroelectric plant. Lasthope has a large number of Warehouses to contain any replacement parts and equipment near the railroad tracks.

We do have operating Natural gas engines and three natural gas wells under our control; Comber doesn’t think it feasible to try and seize the Mist Fields because they are to the Northwest of Portland and the Pirates still active enough to be a problem. We don’t have the population resources to commit as yet but they are an eventual acquisition necessary to Lasthope’s dreams of a future where we don’t fall too far backwards as a species.

To that end the Diesel trains are being currently converted to operate on natural gas which has always been possible and in the old world even discussed but cost and hardheaded they never put into effect.

We do have some heavy equipment already converted and the only reason we don’t use them for everything is we don’t have enough of the replacement parts needed; construction equipment is maintenance intensive. Because of that their use is tightly controlled, one guy was mean looked at every council he attended till the New Year's Party when Lasthope People are supposed to forgive their fellow citizens and family for being a dumbshit all because he was pushing for making them into armored cars and sweeping the Portland Pirates. The Loaders, Trackhoe, Dozers, and the Cranes are treasured because without them our big projects such as the 60 mile long combination Earthworks wouldn’t have been built in 3 years, which I add cost us several of the pieces of equipment we started with. Now they are used to Maintain the earthworks and and our infrastructure.

All of the Above drivel is the Goddess and Personal Dictator babbling because the meds threw her sleep schedule off

He didn't invent it but while he was the Chief Ranger of Mount hood he attended a Disaster conference and saw the shelters and how they were manufactured, took his guys three years to figure out how to produce locally.
