LEGO Beer Wagon for 0.5L Beer Cans

A beer wagon that can safely transport a 0.5L beer can. The build is very stable, the beer won't ever fall off, not even when taking corners at high speed.

"Don't drink bad beer, drink The Good Beer™!" (Message sponsored by The Good Beer Company Ltd.)

For the base and the bogies I'm using a custom design, not a train base plate (like 6584). This comes with one advantage and one disadvantage:

  • Pro: The pin from the bogie won't be in the way of the beer can, as it does not go through the base plate.
  • Con: The entire build is 1/3 block higher.

The middle section of the undercarriage features some stoppers for the bogies, so they cannot rotate more than they should when the wagon is off the tracks.
