What are the differences, if any, between a Husky Stack well car and a Maxi Stack well car?

It almost looks like the Maxi Stack well cars carry shorter containers than the Husky Stack well cars?

I think the difference is that the Maxi is a newer improved version of the Husky.

I think the Maxi's wells are a different size so they can loads different size configurations of containers on them.

I could be wrong as I don't know much about them.

Thanks for your input Big Ed

I found a little more information myself... It seems that Maxi Stacks could originally only hold 40' containers in their well, but then the design changed allowing them to hold 48' containers, and then it changed again allowing the well to hold 53' containers... It seems like Husky Stacks could hold 53' containers from the start though...
