== History ==
Coffe Pot was built in September of 1905 by Kitson and company and the coach by the Metropolitan Amalgamated Railway Carriage and Wagon company for the South Australian Railway's Central Australia Railway. It operated from 1906 to the 4th of June in 1921 when it was sold to Commonwealth Railways along with the Central Australia Railway and classed NJAB. Though the SAR continued to operate the motor coach until 1926 it provided services between Quorn and Hawker and after 1926 some to Port Augusta. It was withdrawn by the CR in 1932 and stored at Quorn. In 1955 it was sent ot Port Augusta Workshops and in 1960 donated to the Northern Terrritory National Trust and put on display at Alice Springs Station. In 1975 it was given to the Pichi Richi Railway of Quorn. It was restored to operation and currently operates on the railway.
