[NW Mailing List]

This is N&W Class BMk which consisted of 3 cars, numbered 1230, 1231 and
1232; these cars were converted from Class Me Mail cars numbered 1109, 1110
and 1111.  Originally when converted these cars had more windows than as
shown in the photo Jim C linked to; some of these windows had been plated
over by the time of that photo.

I've attached the N&W equipment diagram for this car.  Hope this helps.
