I believe the issue with the gauge is not one of width, but rather
of height - the shipping industry of moving from standard
containers with a height of 8'6" to the 'high cube' type with a
height of 9'6". Standard containers will go through the W8 gauge,
but high cubes won't; i *think* high cubes will fit in W9 gauge,
but don't quote me on that - it rather depends on how high the bed
of the wagon is.

W10 gauge enhancement is what's needed.
