Newfoundland Railway

Government of Newfoundland took over Reid Newfoundland Company's railway July 1, 1923.

Many of these cars were built in England where they were successful for years.
However, they proved unsuitable for the rugged winters of Newfoundland.
In addition they required a three man crew of engineer, fireman and conductor
which did not result in the anticipated operational savings.

Rail Coach E the last of five. Built by Sentinel-Cammell 1925.
Therefore it is likely they were designated A, B, C, D and E.
