    In all honesty, I can only think of a very few tank cars for a drinkable liquid. Arrowhead Water used to have water cars that were pulled from the source to the bottling plant on the Pacific Electric, and I know that GATX had 4 and 6 dome wine tank cars and there were vinegar cars, but as for juice cars, I am sure that the oranges were shipped by reefer to the plant....in more modern times, Segram's shipped spirits by rail for bottling
