The B4 Bay 05 were compartment wagons , which were originally built as type ABB for the Palatinate Railways . This type of wagon is shown on sheet 12 of the 1913 Palatinate wagon directory.
History / procurement
As with most of the southern German railway companies, the type of compartment car was the predominant type of car on the Palatinate Railways , but until the 1890s it was only a two- and three-axle vehicle. With the advent of supraregional passenger and express trains - international express trains have also been running through the Palatinate since 1895 - the management of the Pfalzbahn needed to procure suitable rolling stock, also with regard to the wagon compensation agreed with the neighboring railways.
In 1905, a total of 6 first and second class wagons were procured from the Rastatt wagon factory for upscale passenger and express train services. With the takeover of the Pfalzbahnen by the Royal Bavarian State Railways in 1909, these wagons were also taken over and assigned to the Ludwigshafen management of KBSts.EB. With the transition to the Reichsbahn in 1920, the compartments of the first class were changed to those of the second and the cars were given the class designation B4 Bay 05b . The further whereabouts are unclear, as the DRG did not list the wagons of the former Palatinate Railways separately.
Constructive features
Underframe
The frame consisted of riveted rolled sections. The outer side rails were U-shaped with outward-facing flanges. To support the car body and due to the large pivot spacing, a truss frame made of profiles and pillar stands was installed in the plane of the outer side members. 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. These were later partly replaced by case buffers .
drive
The cars had bogies of Bavarian design with a short wheelbase and frames 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 1,014 mm.
Brake: Pneumatic brake system Schleiffer, hand brake in the raised brakeman's cab.
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. Raised brakeman's cab, accessible from both sides, with a flat arched roof. No transition on the front sides.
Furnishing
Interior: a total of seven compartments, two of the 1st and five of the 2nd class. 1st class compartments in the middle of the car. A total of three toilets with washing facilities. One of the toilets could be reached from each compartment through side passages. The car had padded seats.
Heating: The vehicles had steam heating .
Ventilation: static fans on the roof.
Lighting: originally the lighting was gas, the storage container hung on the frame in the longitudinal direction of the car. Later partially electric lighting.
comment
With the transition to DRG, the two compartments of the first class without changing the seat allocation were redrawn to those of the second class, and the cars were given a modified generic name .
