Abstract

A system for increasing vertical clearance in an autorack includes an autorack comprising a plurality of decks. A first deck of the plurality of decks is positioned beneath a second deck of the plurality of decks. The second deck includes a clearance region proximate a center line of the second deck. A first portion of an underside surface of the second deck at the clearance region is higher than a second portion of the underside surface of the second deck not at the clearance region.
