Moonshine, whether legally or illegally produced, is as much a part of our Americana as baseball and drive-ins. As a result of the prohibition of alcohol in the early 1900s, production of moonshine or "homemade spirits" grew. Speakeasies needed a source of "adult beverages" to keep their customers happy! For 2023, LOTS is offering a 19th century wooden tank car to commemorate the "legal" production of "End of the Line" moonshine at the Historic Brushy Mountain Penitentiary in Petros, Tennessee. This tank car is a "must-have" car for all toy train enthusiasts because of its authentic style and eye-catching graphics.
This car is a unique and treasured addition to the family of collectible rail cars offered by the Lionel Operating Train Society. The "limited edition" Lionel-manufactured (Lionel 2301310) O-gauge tank car is 9 11/16" long and features a highly detailed durable ABS body, metal truss rods, and die-cast trucks with operating couplers. It is designed to operate on O-27 or larger curves. Don't wait to order as we anticipate this car to become a sold out offering quickly.
Ordering information can be found at this link - More Information . Note: Per our contract with Lionel, the cars can only be offered to LOTS Members. Join LOTS at LOTS Website or call 513-598-8240 - 9 am - 4 pm Eastern
