Drawing for BL Bay 13

The Bavarian BL Bay 13 were through cars for local rail traffic . They were listed in the car register of the Royal Bavarian State Railways (K.Bay.Sts.B.) from 1913 under sheet no. 500 led.

development

With the growing network of local railways, there was a need for suitable wagons for local passenger transport. Between 1909 and 1929 wagons were procured that already had the characteristics of normal passenger wagons for mainline railways.

procurement

A total of 411 wagons of the categories BL , BCL , CL , DL and PPostL were procured between 1909 and 1929 . These all had a uniform floor plan, open end platforms with Dixi grids on the steps and staff transfers only secured by brackets. Instead of the composite windows that were common up to now, large panes were installed. Of the wagons according to sheet 500, a total of six wagons were procured from MAN in Nuremberg in 1913 .

Whereabouts

The cars all came to the Deutsche Bundesbahn. They were retired by September 1960.

Constructive features

Underframe

The frame of the car was made entirely of profile iron and riveted. The outer side members were U-shaped with outward flanges. The cross members were also made of U-profiles and not cranked. As a towing device, the wagons had screw couplings according to VDEV . The drawbar was spring-loaded throughout and in the middle. The car had slotted basket buffers with an installation length of 650 millimeters as a shock device, the buffer plates had a diameter of 370 millimeters.

drive

The wagons had riveted half-timbered axle brackets of the union type. The axles were stored in sliding axle bearings. The suspension springs were 1,764 mm long and consisted of eleven leaves each measuring 96 mm × 13 mm. The wheels had spoked wheel bodies of Bavarian shape 38. Because of the long wheelbase of 6,000 millimeters, club steering axles were used.

In addition to a hand spindle brake, which was located on one of the platforms at the end of the wagon, the wagons also had compressed air brakes from the Westinghouse system .

Car body

The frame of the car body was made of wooden studs. This was clad with sheet metal on the outside and wood on the inside. The joints between the sheets were covered by cover strips. The roof was rounded flat and went directly into the side wall. It had pulled out beyond the open end platforms. The wagons had appearances in the style of the full railway carriage and no longer the folding local railway appearances.

Furnishing

The car type only led the 2nd class. They had 34 seats and a toilet. The seats were upholstered as is typical of the class. A total of 20 standing places were designated for the two end platforms. 25 seats for officers have been allocated for military transport. The lighting was initially provided by petroleum lights. Electric lighting was installed later. The heating took place via steam. The wagons were ventilated by static roof ventilators and retractable windows.

comment

From 1945 onwards, all cars except number 9 922 were only used as class CL cars.
