Early this year information began to surface regarding a program involving FEMA and the D.O.D. (Department of Defense). This program was an effort to contract and build large Double Decker Trains, which FEMA presents as a means to transport the injured and elderly from a disaster area quickly and safely. According to anonymous reports, this contract was carried out by Gunderson Steel Fabrication, which has facilities in Portland, Oregon, and satellite factories in Texas.

http://www.midcontinent.org/rollingstock/builders/gunderson.htmGunderson was once a subsidiary of FMC Corporation, but it has changed hands once again, and it is now owned by Greenbrier Companies. Greenbrier does indeed make the Double Decker Trains. They bill them as useful for "transport for new vehicles". This is a fascinating prospect, and I was entirely unaware that my new Toyota needed air slats and barred windows to breath:

Back in February, FEMA openly discussed its intentions to use trains as a new way of "safe transport" from disaster areas:

The trains themselves though, have now been sited all over the country. Here are just a few examples:
Notice this first train is marked with a Department of Defense serial number:
