[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by passengerfan</i> <br /><br />Living in wine country our local library mentioned that only the cheap so called table wines are shipped by tank cars. Many California wineries ship tank cars of wine to New York and other states where they are bottled under local or so called house labels or in some cases private labels. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Cheap Wine shipped in Tank Cars? Any stories of hobos getting legs chopped off at the knee after passing out underneath the nozzle of one these? I heard a story once about a derailment near dunsmuir,boxcar tipped over spilling it's contents of cases of table wine into the sacramento river. Wonder what life was like at the tramp camp downstream that week.
