neutral  Tim Drayton: I am by no means an expert in this field, but isn't the catenary the overhead wire that supplies power to electric trains?

block of railcars


Explanation:
I think there is more than one potential answer, but this term is one possibility as shown in the following quote:

“Unit trains move an entire block of railcars carrying a single commodity (e.g., coal) from the origin to a single destination.”

Simply ‘block of cars’ is also used:

“At Drummondville the yard switcher puts a block of cars for Sherbrooke inside the caboose while the train engine sets out the Drummondville cars (cars from Drummondville for Richmond are sent on the way freight). Arriving at Richmond, it is a quick move using the train locomotive to set out the Richmond block and pick up the Sherbrooke block. The train now runs to Sherbrooke as a solid block.”

http://www.railways.incanada.net/Articles/Article2005_6.html

‘Block of wagons’ is also used:

“The block of wagons carrying the local shipments will be pushed into the intermodal terminals where units are due to be picked up by lorries for physical distribution.”
