Yep, probably luggage. It wasn't the first one, as the Swedes converted some which had been interned during WW2, first for ball-bearing freight, and then for passenger use. They had a similar internal arrangement to that in the pics, with a cabin fore and aft of the bomb bay, and an extended nose for freight/baggage. Some also had the bomb bay sealed, and another cabin installed.
Rob, it's nothing particularly unusual, as a number were converted, during WW2, as troop transports, freighters, and as VIP transports. And, of course, this also lead to the development of the Stratoliner, using the same wing etc.
That would make a cool conversion Rob!
