Drawing for the car on sheet 086

The Bavarian BC4 Bay 12 were four-axle compartment cars for express and passenger trains that were still built in the classic wooden construction. In the car register of the K.Bay.Sts.B. from 1913 sheet no. 086 and were originally built as a 3-class ABCC car.

history

With the increased number of national passenger and express trains in the first decade after 1900, the Bavarian railways also had to grapple with being able to provide appropriate types of wagons for these types of trains. The wagon compensation agreed with the neighboring railways also prompted the Royal Bavarian State Railways to also procure wagons for upscale passenger train traffic. After a first series of procurement between 1904 and 1906 - see BC4 Bay 04 on Sheet 085 - a total of 10 wagons of the same type according to Sheet 086 were subsequently procured in 1912, but with the extended bogie with a 3,500 mm wheelbase.

A total of 2 cars had to be handed in as reparations after the First World War. By 1957, the last car was retired from the DB.

Constructive features

Underframe

Frame: riveted rolled sections. The outer side members had a U-shaped cross-section. To support the car body due to the large pivot spacing, a truss frame made of profiles and pillars was installed in the plane of the outer longitudinal beams.

Drawbar: screw couplings , the drawbar was continuous and sprung in the middle.

Bumpers: The original rod buffers were later replaced by sleeve buffers .

drive

The extended bogies of Bavarian standard design with 3,500 mm wheelbase were used as the running gear. These had a frame made of metal sheets and angles riveted together. The axles were stored in sliding axle bearings. The wheels had spoked wheel bodies. Air brakes from the Westinghouse system were used as brakes . There was also a hand spindle brake at one end of the car.

Car body

Shell: car body frame made of wood, clad on the outside with sheet metal and inside with wood. Side walls slightly drawn in on the underside, barrel roof. No transition on the front sides. Continuous side walkways with stop bars. Because of the large pivot spacing, the car bodies were supported by trussing made of profiles and post-tensioning bars in the plane of the outer longitudinal members.

Interior: one 1st class compartment, two 2nd class compartments and six 3rd class compartments. A total of five toilets with washing facilities. One of the toilets could be reached from each compartment through side passages. The first and second class had upholstered seats, the third class compartments had wooden bench seats. The 1st class compartments were 2,120 mm wide, 2nd class 2,020 mm wide and 3rd class 1,580 mm wide.

Heating: The vehicles had steam heating .

Ventilation: static fans on the roof above the toilets.

Lighting: Originally, the lighting was carried out by gas incandescent lights, the storage container hung on the frame in the longitudinal direction of the car. Later partially electric lighting.
