This invention relates to systems of handling flowable cargo in lined cargo containers. An inflatable, self installing liner configured to line the container, when inflated, is installed and inflated within the container. A transparent, rigid bulkhead keeps the filled liner from transferring load directly to access doors to the container. Special inflatable bags are provided between the liner and th e container at positions where cargo tends to remain during unloading of the liner. Fluidizing means and agitation means are also provided to enhance the unloading of the cargo. In another embodiment, there is disclosed a novel modular bulkhead configuratio n that has an interlocking internal construction. This modular bulkhead can be outfitted to include a compartment for housing the liner during shipment, or to receive a cartridge containing a liner. The modular bulkhead can also include a viewport and sample port.
