Abstract Wheeled containers for tube transport, comprising the following elements of structure and operation: a) tube wheeled bogies with polymer wheels laterally disposed and between them at the bottom double flanged steel rollers; b) on this bogies there are vertical masts with stabilizing rollers at the top; c) the container has gondola with rotation shafts above the center of gravity of gondola supported via spherical joints on the said tube wheeled bogies; d) on the gondolas there are rigid arms with rollers, the symmetry axis of the rotation shaft, vertical masts and the said rigid arms form a vertical plane passing through the symmetry plane of the gondola in cruise position; e) also the containers have chain driving means in form of articulated dogs articulated to the gondola, kept retracted (without touching the tube) by a magnet retainer or by a mechanical hook latching mechanism which could be released by external stationary rollers permitting the containers to be chain driven. The way of operation is as follows: a) the tube wheeled bogie is entering via the bottom double flanged rollers on a rail and the roller at the top of the Wheeled Containers for Tube Transport vertical mast in another rail, then the bogie is inclined laterally, but the gondola and the arm with roller tends to remain vertical and could enter into another rail which is a helical cam determining the rotation of the gondola around the axis and implicitly unloading the material contained in it. b) as far as concerning the chains driving system it works as follows: when a stationary roller is releasing the chain drive dog and this able to chain drive the containers, then when the chain driving is finished another stationary roller is pushing back the chain driving dog and this is caught either by the magnetic retainer or by mechanical latching mechanism.
