Constructive features

Underframe

As the base frame of the cart connected with the box was already in the wagon according sheet 75 undercarriage constructed entirely of wood, which partially - z. B. for the outer side members - was reinforced with screwed angle iron. Wooden profiles were also used for the cross members. This design promised a smoother run for high-quality cars. The wooden cross members to hold the turntable pans were also reinforced with angle iron. Due to the large wheelbase, trusses with adjustable tie rods were added to support the outer longitudinal members. The buffer beams were built entirely from rolled sections. As a towing device, the wagons had screw couplings with safety hooks according to VDEV, the drawbar was spring-loaded throughout. The wagons were equipped with rod buffers with an installation length of 650 mm, the buffer plates had a diameter of 370 mm.

drive

The cars had bogies of Bavarian design with a short wheelbase of 2,500 mm with a frame riveted from sheet metal and angles. The axles were stored in sliding axle bearings. The wheels had spoked wheel bodies and a wheel diameter of 1014 mm of Bavarian Form 39.

The hand brakes were each in the closed transition at one end of the car. All cars were equipped with Westinghouse air brakes.

Car body

The car body framework consisted of a wooden frame work. It was clad with sheet metal on the outside and wood on the inside. The side walls were smooth and pulled down over the outer longitudinal beams. The wagons had a barrel roof with a skylight structure.

The interior was divided into a total of six compartments and one half-compartment (2nd class). The 1st class compartment had a total of four upholstered seats, the two and a half compartments of the 2nd class had a total of 15. The four 3rd class compartments were equipped with wooden slatted benches and each compartment offered eight seats. Twenty-one places for officers and twenty-four for men were designated for military transport. The compartments were closed with sliding doors facing the side corridor.

Furnishing

With the exception of the 1401, 1403 and 1408 cars, the 1st class seats could be converted into beds. The half-compartment of the 2nd class could be upgraded to 1st class if necessary.

At both ends of the car there were toilets that were combined with washing facilities.

The wagons were heated by steam . The ventilation took place via fans in the skylight area or via the retractable windows.

The cars were illuminated by gas lamps . The two storage containers hung on the frame in the longitudinal direction of the car. From the 1930s onwards, it was converted to electrical lighting.

comment

During the renovation in 1930 changes were made to the toilets. The side walls of the compartment sides were given large individual windows for each compartment instead of the narrow double windows. Car 14 475 was stationed in Munich in 1939 and drove there as C4ü Bay 97.
