I checked out the photo

and it is indeed a pay car.  CP operated the last
one in eastern Canada (on their International of
Maine Division in Maine and New Brunswick) until July 6,1960 due to the remoteness of the area.

An excellent history on CPR`s pay car services in
CRHA`s Canadian Rail is well worth the
read.  http://www.exporail.org/can_rail/Canadian%20Rail_no173_1966.pdf
