Steamport Southport Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 I think it's some type of MR Family or Picnic Saloon. The MRT have a couple ISTR. The clue is the large windows. Jason 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatB Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Looks to be in surprisingly good and original condition, given that it's probably been out of service for the better part of a century. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
