The DR 135 060 railcar is a railcar developed by the Deutsche Reichsbahn in 1935 for passenger traffic on branch lines . In terms of structure, it corresponds to the last row of railcars in the DR 135 002 ... 059 series , it is classified as a VT 135 angular design with mechanical power transmission and also from Waggon- und Maschinenfabrik Aktiengesellschaft vorm. Busch, Bautzen . The distinguishing feature from the series version is the drive system. It has been preserved to this day and is located under the name T3 at the Minden Museum Railway .

history

The railcar was created in an effort to equip the tried and tested DR 135 002… 059 series with a drive system that avoided the disadvantage of the stationary diesel engine of this series. This protruded into the passenger compartment and could only be placed under a bench. Therefore, the drive system in this series was designed as a purely underfloor system . The drive system with the eight-cylinder boxer engine 2 × 4 V 18 L from DWK was chosen . This engine worked according to the Lanova injection process and had a stroke of 180 mm with a piston diameter of 125 mm. The filling control was regulated from the driver's cab using a cable. The idle speed was 550 rpm, the engine mass was 1,360 kg and the dimensions were 1,540 × 1,750 × 850 mm. As with the series vehicles, the power transmission was implemented with the mechanical TAG transmission . Compared to the production vehicles, the railcar lacked the anti-glare screens on the right front window from the start.

Obviously, the drive motor has proven itself, in the literature there is no information about a motor change. Just one year after its commissioning, the mechanical transmission was replaced by a hydrodynamic transmission with the designation 2 W 400/15887 from AEG .

The railcar was intended for use in Regensburg , but was put into operation in Passau . By July 1939 he had covered a total of 225,000 kilometers, which corresponds to 56,000 kilometers a year. When the war broke out, the vehicle, like all diesel vehicles, was shut down. In 1942, after an investigation, it was sold for operation on private railways, after 1945 it came to the Georgsmarienhüttener Eisenbahn and operated there under the name T1 . In 1949, the vehicle was on the Wittlager orbit sold and wrong there as T3 to 1989. Since 1989, is among the vehicle under the name T3 for Verkehrsgesellschaft district of Osnabrück and is supervised by the museum railway Minden.
