Drawing for CL Bay 05a

The Bavarian CL Bay 05a were short 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. 569 led.

development

With the growing network of local railways, there was a need for suitable wagons for local passenger transport. Since only tank locomotives with low tractive power (e.g. type PtL 2/2 ) were available for transport, passenger cars of a particularly light design were also required. These wagons were not suitable for military transport.

procurement

Between 1905 and 1911, a total of 281 wagons of the types BL , BCL , CL and PPostL were procured, all of which - with the exception of the wagons of the type PPostL - had a uniform floor plan, open end platforms with Dixi grids on the steps and staff transfers only secured by bars exhibited. Instead of the composite windows that were common up to now, large panes were installed.

Of the wagons according to sheet 569, 77 wagons in four lots were purchased from Waggonfabrik Josef Rathgeber in Munich between 1905 and 1911 .

Whereabouts

A total of five cars had been retired by 1940. The whereabouts of eight other cars could not be clarified after the end of the war in 1945. Of the vehicles delivered, a total of 54 came to the DB, where they were retired by 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 612 millimeters as a shock device, the buffer plates had a diameter of 370 millimeters.

drive

The wagons had riveted half-timbered axle brackets made of flat iron of the short, straight design. The axles were stored in sliding axle bearings. The wheels had spoked wheel bodies. Because of the long wheelbase of 5,000 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 flatly rounded and pulled out over the open end platforms. The wagons had foldable local railway appearances, which were later replaced by normal ones.

Furnishing

The car type only led the 3rd class and had a total of 37 seats and a toilet. Four of the seats were in a separate, locked compartment for prisoner transport (push compartment), which was opposite the toilet. A total of 20 standing places were designated for the two end platforms.

The lighting was done by kerosene lamps. The heating took place via steam. The cars were ventilated by static roof fans.
