The electric motor coaches of the series 424 were for the DB Regio operated Hanover S-Bahn designed and are only deployed there.
technology
The 424 series is identical to the 425 series . The differences to the first 425 series are:
- Stepless entry with extendable step to bridge gaps
- no wheelchair lift available, as not required
- the drive monitoring in the 425 was not implemented in the 424, so the 424 is only allowed to drive 140 km / h, even when guided by an LZB .
The 425 series of the second, fourth and fifth series also received the entrances with an extendable step, but were not designated as 424. Like the 425, the 424 consists of four segments, led by the end railcar 1 with the series designation 424.0, the two middle railcars 2 and 3 with the designations 434.0 and 434.5 and the end railcar 4 with the series designation 424.5. The car bodies rest on five bogies , two of which are end bogies and three Jakobs bogies , whereby the middle bogie is neither driven nor braked. The vehicles of the 424 series can not only be coupled to each other, but can also be combined to form mixed multiple units with 425 and 426. A maximum of four multiple units can be coupled. A handicapped accessible toilet is installed in the end railcar 1.
In contrast to older S-Bahn systems, the vehicle has a floor height of only 798 mm and thus offers almost the same height and, with the extendable steps, barrier-free access to 760 mm high standard platforms . The outwardly similar, but technically completely different, S-Bahn series 423 is tailored to the higher platforms in older S-Bahn networks. The vehicles of the 424/434 series (like the 425 series) have two double pivoting sliding doors per car body and side, while the 423 series has three doors per car body and side.
After the DB Regio had been commissioned with the management of the S-Bahn again after the tendering for the S-Bahn services, the 2010/11 vehicles were given replacement seats with thicker seat padding.
commitment
The vehicles were supposed to go into operation at the same time as the new Hanover S-Bahn network went into operation in 2000, but this was prevented by technical problems. The transformers suspended under the car body were not adequately shielded and caused malfunctions in the signal and safety technology on the network side . During EXPO 2000 , vehicles of the 423 series borrowed from the S-Bahn in Munich and Stuttgart were used instead of the 424 series . After the problems had been resolved, the 424 series vehicles were used after the expo. At major events such as the Hanover Fair, rental vehicles from the 425 series from other regions are used as reinforcement .
Later, the vehicle inventory of the Hanover S-Bahn was supplemented by six vehicles from the sub-series 425.15 , which were equipped for use on the S 5 to Paderborn with partially low platforms with variable steps. In 2008, another 13 multiple units of the class 425.5 of the fifth series (with gap bridging) were added for the expansion of the S-Bahn to Hildesheim.
Since 2003, some vehicles have been named after cities / municipalities in the Hanover S-Bahn network. So far, 22 multiple units bear the coat of arms and the name of a municipality at both ends:
- 424 001 Burgdorf
- 424 002 Bückeburg
- 424 004 Lehrte
- 424 005 Wedemark
- 424 006 Neustadt am Rübenberge (damaged in an accident, back in operation)
- 424 007 Bad Nenndorf
- 424 011 Stadthagen
- 424 014 Jump
- 424 016 Wennigsen (Deister) (since 2012)
- 424 017 Bad Münder am Deister
- 424 018 Celle
- 424 019 Minden
- 424 021 Wunstorf, Germany
- 424 024 Seelze
- 424 025 Nienburg / Weser
- 424 027 Hanover
- 424 032 Bad Pyrmont
- 424 033 Hamelin
- 424 035 Haste
- 424 037 Langenhagen, Germany
- 424 038 Barsinghausen
- 424 039 Ronnenberg (since June 2011)
