From a graphic design standpoint I think it's a good choice. No, that's not current equipment for intermodal rail use. But it is a silhouette that's instantly recognizable and can't be mistaken for anything else.
For similar reasons my word processor's 'save' icon is a floppy disk and my celphone's 'make a telephone call' icon looks nothing like the actual phone.
