The H.O. Beer Car Website ( www.hobeercars.com ) is now about 98% complete.
Over 800 North American style Brewing cars, produced by over 60
manufacturers from 1933 onward, are now listed.
The site now contains over 700 high resolution photographs of these cars for
your enjoyment and referencing. The listings are cross indexed by both
Manufacturers and Beer Brand names, and a very nice search engine is now
included along with links to all current manufacturers of H.O. Brewing cars
and links to European & N scale "bier car" websites among others.
I wish to thank the dozens of you that have helped me with information and
suggestions over the last four years. I am sure that many of you will find
this H.O. collectors site interesting and useful.
The frames and most of the java have been removed based on suggestions
received from this group back in November and December. All suggestions and
any missing data submissions are still welcome.
Thanks again .. :)

( Smile ) ... That's because I only post a couple of times a year ... I do
read the group quite a bit however.
Additions to www.hobeercars.com
I received three emails today suggesting that I put some sort of
availability ratings on the brewing cars. I did that today. I feel that the
ratings are reasonably accurate, but I am open to changing any of them.
I was also asked about adding a forum ... I am looking into that also, and
will add one if I can figure how it is done..
One other item asked was about Marklin brewing cars ... The site is
currently for North American style cars only, but you never know what might
be down the road.
Thank you for all of the suggestions. They were all good.
Dave
