insulated isothermal wagon for beer transportation model 16-6935 owned by the Baltika Breweries LLC (БАЛТИКА; ОАО "ПК") designed on the base of covered wagon model 11-280 produced by the Altayvagon (code 22)
insulated isothermal wagon model 16-6935 was designed for the Baltika Breweries LLC on the base of covered wagon model 11-280 built by Altayvagon (code 22) and was produced from 1991 y. This car was refurbished by the "Wagon repair depot Pavelets" (code 416, Moscow region) in 2017 y from the car made by the Altayvagon in 2004. Due to some internal modifications made for beer's glass bottles transportation its internal space reduced to 100 m3 from initial 138 and load is shortened to 63 t. This car has lost both the characteristic original blue coloring of the Baltika cars that appeared on the railroads in the late 1990s and large inscription "Baltika" the last obviously because of the law on advertising of alcoholic beverages, however, it retains a small inscription "БАЛТИКА" seen to the upper right.
The Baltika brewery (пивоваренная компания Балтика) was built in Leningrad in the new mixed-use district of Parnas according to the design of the Gipropischeprom-2 Institute. Construction of the brewery began in 1978 and was completed in 1990, just a year before the collapse of the USSR, with the brewery receiving the most modern equipment. In 1992, like most other enterprises, it was privatized and reorganized into a joint stock company of open type (ОАО Балтика). The largest shareholder and investor of Baltika became the Scandinavian holding Baltic Beverages Holding AB (BBH), later absorbed by Carlsberg and Scottish&Newcastle. The company promptly developed a line of new beers called Baltika No. (from 0 to 9 as the strength and ageing increases), which became extremely popular in the 1990s in the former USSR and was sold abroad. In 2008, Baltika fully joined the Carlsberg Group, which became the owner of 85% of shares; in 2012, the Carlsberg Group bought the remaining shares from minority shareholders, becoming the owner of 100% of Baltika Breweries. In 2013, a decision was made to change the organizational and legal form from a joint stock company to a limited liability company. Today Vladimir Putin signed a decree on nationalization of the company.
