Hey! who ran off with the Buds????

Bob how are the wheel chocks attached to the deck and does the flat car have sprung trucks?  Thanks.

Chocks are held on with hot melt and no, they aren't  sprung trucks.Bob

Does the driver have a hand cart to truck the beers into the cooler, and have you tried Menards track?

Thanks Bob.  I like the car in general but the chocks kill it.  They should have made it like the military flats w/load - no chocks.

No and yes

I liked the truck but it is too modern for my beer train.

Hey Cabinet Bob, I see in the pictures that the car number is straight on one side and follows the contour of the body on the other..........Going to Menards tomorrow to pick up my three box cars..............Paul

The number is straight,  the car is going up a grade.....LOL..

Well although I didn't jump on this offer I just got back from Menards bringing home another three cars. And it is your fault LOL. My mini, mini wall has gotten bigger by three cars and no shoe purchases "as of yet". LOL.....Paul

I am going to MENARDS, Livonia, Michigan tomorrow.  After I get the stuff for my wife's project, I am going over to the O Gauge Train Department.

Have a very long list of boxcars, hoppers, flat cars and Bud trucks , just waiting for the Midwest and Ohio rebate to make way for the next free offer! Can't keep up with my idol Bob though! LOL Hope it's the NS Pennsylvania truck again! Missed it last time!

Just picked up the Bud flatcar. The truck is very nice and will be unloading beer at the local beer joint(Camaraderie). I would like to make a Beer blend tank as a load for the flat for delivery to the local brewer.

Hard to catch the flashing Bud sign.
