Night Train Express

Common card · No. 452052

Night Train Express, typically referred to as just Night Train, was a discount, flavored fortified wine produced by E. & J. Gallo Winery in the United States. It was one of several low-cost, high-alcohol fortified wines marketed in the late 20th century, was fortified with brandy to increase its strength, and typically contained 17.5–18% alcohol by volume (ABV) Along with Thunderbird, Night Train Express was one of Gallo’s fortified wine brands most closely associated with this market segment. The wine was discontinued in 2016 following a gradual decline in sales that coincided with a 1989 temporary withdrawal from shelves. By the late 1980s, the product had become closely associated with controversy over cheap fortified wines in urban neighborhoods and social problems.
