Comments on: CN 61082 is an Engineering Dept. BK&D (bunk, kitchen & diner). This 1921 Pullman built car started life as CN 1713 Makura, a Class PS-73-P, 73 foot 6 inch sleeping car. It was converted from a sleeper to Engineering MoW service in July 1961. I captured this scene while working in the yard at Hornepayne, ON in the summer of 1976. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?
