Well as if I needed another rabbit hole to run down while chasing rabid squirrels. So this past weekend we had our semi annual train swap and our club hosts a couple tables. One passerby suggested that the size of G scale and the fact it ran outdoors lent itself well to a beer hauling car. One that would hold a can or two and deliver it to people. Calling it a beer stop instead of a flag stop. This led to the imaginengineering of a miniature pressurized keg car. hauling one of those minikegs like the one Heiniken comes in.
Well as we are discussing this another guy suggested that we build a cask car. I thought he was full of dung but he insisted there was such a thing. A google search reveals there is such a thing.
Well this got me to thinking. I don’t partake in vino that much. The beer I drink doesn’t come in mini kegs. But!!! I do like a particular liquid made from corn, barley, oats and is stored in charred oak barrels. (And none of that cheap stuff from Alabama either). So i came across this particular Youtube video
And I am thinking I have the makings of a great bourbon car.
Found an even better video where he atcually works out the match
