Bore Horizontal - RV Butter Boxes

I found these in Morandoo mid week.  They are repainted RV coil containers from the later CIMC supplied series.

The based are black and the lids are the standard light blue with a black band and the words "BORE HORIZONTAL".  The two bases are RV062 and RV074.   One of the lids was RV057.  

I'm not sure exactly how they are configured or what they are carrying.

Enjoy!

    Google suggests 'bore horizontal' relates to how the coil is loaded in the container - 'bore vertical' is the other option.

    Thanks Marcus. Very interesting. I would think then that maybe the base is now similar to an orange butter box. I believe the standard blue base is flat as per the link.
