Austin Railway Car

The picture at left is a 1925 model Austin, originally an automobile made for running on road. It was later sold to a scrap dealer. A railway employee brought this car from the scrap dealer and restored it. However, he made few major changes to the car. He fitted rail wheels to the car and removed the steering. Thus it began its journey as railcar. It was used for carrying inspection officials on track. It could carry six people.
