The NZR 50-foot carriage of 1908 were originally constructed for the North Island Main Trunk passenger trains. The first were clad in Kauri with open end platforms however those built from 1930 were clad in steel with enclosed vestibles. These main line cars were used by the NZR. From 1930 similar cars were ordered for South Island services and for North Island provincial services in particular for the Rotorua Limited express.
