About telescopic hood wagons:

Telescopic hood wagons were developed to transport weather-sensitive goods such as steel coils, paper rolls, and prefabricated parts. Their sliding roofs and side walls allowed quick access from either side without dismantling the cover structure. These wagons became widespread across Western and Central Europe from the 1970s onward.
