The Tea and Sugar was the lifeline of the Nullarbor. It started running in c1913, during the construction phase of the Trans-Australia Railway (TAR) which links Port Augusta to Kalgoorlie. Certainly by 1915 the Tea and Sugar had been formally recognised with the provision of dedicated vehicles for use, including a supply van, butcher shop and a fruit and vegetable van.
Whilst construction of the railway was taking place two sets of vehicles were provided, one for the Kalgoorlie construction crews and the other based at Port Augusta. The original butcher cars transported live sheep that were killed en route, as no suitable method of refrigeration was available to keep meat fresh for long periods.
In 1944 two new bodies were built for use as mobile butcher cars. One of these was van FA640, which entered service on 20th November 1944. It was constructed on a 45 foot (13.71 metre) flat wagon underframe that originally had been built in 1916.
Apart from new refrigeration units fitted in 1963 both vans remained basically unaltered, apart from minor overhauls, until withdrawn from service on 11th September 1982. They were stored at Port Augusta and Stirling North for six years until FA640 was delivered to the Museum on 2nd August 1988 and the other tendered for disposal. Prior to being obtained by the Museum FA640 was badly vandalised and many fittings stolen, but has since been fully restored.
