The Redfern cars were light weight timber framed carriages some of which had a second roof added to improve cooling.

LCC85 was converted from a CBH in August 1924 and then converted to a weighbridge fitter's van in 1929 - condemned in 1961 (source: Cooke, Estell, Seckold, Beckhaus & Toohey- 1999 Coaching Stock of the NSW Railways - Eveleigh Press, pp79) |
