History: The KOKI 5000 and KOKI 5500 were early models of container flat car (built from 1959), initially limited to 3t containers (later 5t), they were unable to carry 20-foot containers. They were retired by 2008 from commercial operation, however a large number were converted to carry welded rail for maintenance trains, and renamed as TIKI flatcars. Most were limited to 85 kph, but some variants were converted for 95 kph use.
