Coach 26 was the only one updated. I have not been able to pin down when the conversion was done. From photographs we know that passenger trains were run as mixed trains in the last years prior to July 1937 when scheduled passenger service was discontinued. I suspect the conversion was done in the early 1930's, once service to Prairie City ceased.
