Back in the day we used to get another type of bum wine called Night Train from a packy on beech st in China Town...basically right next to Soo Hoo Park.

I honestly haven't walked down beech in a couple years so I don't know if they're open, but if they are it's a good bet.

It was Night Train Express fortified wine… the express is the most important part. I plastered the outside of the McDonalds on Gallivan with that fine beverage one night in the early 90’s.

You know those old people Facebook posts reminiscing about "drinking water from a hose" and "eating bologna" or whatever? I'd love to see one that's like "When I was a kid we bought our MD 20/20s from kindly unhoused individuals. Gen z will never understand 😭🙏🙌"
