Beer was one of the first goods to be transported on our railways. Breweries commissioned their own insulated wagons, which were incorporated into the railway companies� fleets for operational purposes. Due to the small production batches, these wagons were rarely identical but generally conformed to the dimensions of standard goods wagons built by the various state and national railways. It is hardly surprising, then, that the beer transport wagons were yet another iteration of the A2 wagon type master drawing. The original wagon that served as the inspiration for BRAWA�s new model features vertically mounted wooden cladding that conceals the body frame, increasing the width of the wagon body. In this design, as well as slightly modified variants, these beer wagons were used by many breweries between 1910 and 1970.
