Dominion Atlantic Railway Sleeping Car "Keoma"
Keoma and its sister car Kisbey were the first steel sleepers assigned to the DAR.[1] They were K Class sleepers built by Pullman in 1913 for Canadian Pacific. The thirteen sleepers, each with 12 sections and 1 bedroom were all named after Canadian towns that started with "K".[2] Keoma was scrapped in June 1959[3]
