Is anyone familiar with this model-maker, and if this beer brand really existed? I've got one on the way. Looks like this maker may have used Athearn parts.

| Thanks, Ken. It just appealed to me, so I bought it. Being a resident of the Southwest, I liked the look. Now my little HO people will have plenty to drink! I googled Bonanza Beer, and couldn't find if it was a real brand or not.

| Athearn car, custom decorated by Con-Cor, JMC was a division or sister company of theirs for a time and Con-Cor offered custom-decorated Athearn and MDC stuff a batch of different times over the years.
