bar car

Rail drinking coach

A bar car is a railroad car equipped to serve alcoholic beverages to passengers, typically found on commuter and long-distance trains.

The term evokes an era when train travel included amenities like dining cars and observation lounges: We grabbed drinks in the bar car on the way home from the city.
