History:

Co3c type 1 nr. 560, from 1956 Bo3c and from 1970 B22 was built by Skabo in 1914 in a series with latern roof with over light windows. This was the start of the Co3c open coaches with bigger windows. Co3c type 1 and 2 were built from 1911 to 1937, totally 52 coaches, mostly by Skabo and Strømmen, but 5 coaches by Scandia in Denmark.

The open coaches with bigger windows gave a good view to the beautiful scenery of Norway. The seating was the more spacious 2+2 and it made these coaches were popular among the travellers.

in 1983, after the introduction the B7 series coaches (1981-1985) the last of these coaches was taken out of service, after for some of them amazing, 70 years of service.
