One of the local train stores buys and sells used equipment, so it's interesting to see what can be found there from time to time.
On sunday, I hit the jackpot. Somebody had sold several boxcars to them representing several well known and more obscure breweries...
Sometimes local railroad clubs will do a group buy and have a manufacturer do a limited run of cars painted to represent a local favorite brewery...it's a fairly popular side project for adults who play with trains to collect various brands for their collection. They had 5 there I had never heard of before.
I can't remember the names of all of them now, but one of them is a 'Schlitz Malt Liquor' car, complete with the bull on the side. Schlitz, no it's not a limited or special anything, and it will rot your gut all the way through to your soul. But finding model railroad boxcars painted up in their livery is pretty rare. Ride the bull!
