Designed as a steel replacement for Sydney’s ageing wooden trailer cars, this carriage was built by Tulloch Ltd in the early 1940s. Unlike its predecessors, its riveted steel frame provided greater durability and safety, a step forward in passenger car design at the time.
Now undergoing restoration, the stripped interior reveals the layers of past modifications, with replacement panels set to bring it closer to its original condition. Sunlight streams through the windows, casting long shadows across the floor, a quiet reminder of the many passengers it once carried.
A striking piece of NSW rail history, this fine art print is perfect for those who appreciate the evolution of commuter transport and the preservation of industrial heritage.
