W type carriage

The W type carriages were wooden passenger carriages used on the railways of Victoria, Australia.
==History==
In the early 20th century, the Victorian Railways converted the central part of their network to electric traction. As part of this project, they converted a large number of 'Swing Door' rollingstock to electric traction and this left a gaping hole in the fleet. As a result, the 'W' series of passenger cars were built. There were four variations, the AW, ABW, BW and CW, built from 1911.
There has been great interest in the origin of the 'W' group letter. In most other cases the letter has been derived from a basic feature or use of the car type. In the 1900s, new express passenger cars were being built to replace ageing equipment and these were lettered 'E'. The W cars were a similar design but modified for general stopping trains, Peter J. Vincent believes the 'W' may represent 'Wayside' or non-express passenger type.
