A mounting system (200) for at least one of supporting and transporting a unitary load, the mounting system is provided. The mounting system includes a plurality of adjacent railcars (206, 202, 212) including a first railcar, the first railcar includes spaced first and second wheel assemblies (216, 220) each including at least one wheel pair (218, 222), a first frame (30) coupled to the first railcar, the first frame having a space (49) defined between at least two portions (48, 50) of the first frame, the first frame including at least one cushion (32, 33) selectively positionable within the first frame space, and a separate second frame coupled to the first railcar, the second frame having a space defined between at least two portions of the second frame, the second frame including at least one cushion selectively positionable within the second frame space, wherein the second frame is spaced from the first frame to facilitate at least one of partially containing and partially supporting the load, and wherein the first frame is substantially centered over the at least one wheel pair of the first wheel assembly, and the second frame is substantially centered over the at least one wheel pair of the second wheel assembly. |
