"Canadian Pacific
Railway 'Jackman'
Jackman was a 14-section sleeper built by
Canadian Car & Foundry in Montreal in
1931. The sleeping accomodation
consisted of seven sets of upper and lower
berths on each side of the car. During the
day, the upper berth folded into the wall
and each section converted to facing seats.
There were large men's and women's
washroom and toilet facilties at opposite
ends of the car. Jackman was typical of the
thousands of CPR passenger cars serviced
at the John Street yard for over a
half-century and was converted to work
train service in 1960."
