Here are two 53FT well cars I built by looking at photos of the National Steel Car prototype. It is made entirely of styrene and built as 3RS. However, I built the CP rail car as a transition car because most of my 53ft intermodal is lobster-claw while I do have 40ft well cars and locos with Kadees on them.
This is an extremely common prototype on the rails, and both CP Rail and DTTX have many of them. I had to make a "boring" CP Rail 53ft container to go with the corresponding car. Luckily I already had a TransX (also domestic Canadian trucking company).
These are often found as 3-car drawbar-connected sets in real life, but I have no plan to make more. They simply take up to much space on my track because they are sooo looong!
