The container (10) also includes a cap (18) for sealing the port, and a harness (30) for supporting the barrier (12) and defining the shape of the cavity (11). The method generally having the initial steps of removing most of the oxygen from the cavity (11) of the container (10), and adjusting the shape of the cavity (11) to conform to the type of rail car that is being used to haul the finely divided coal.
