The petrol - motor coaches of the series DSB M 21-22 were in 1926 by DSB (DSB) in Denmark procured to operate on less frequented rail lines.

At the beginning of railcar procurement in Denmark, all DSB vehicles were numbered starting with "M" until the introduction of the series .

history

As in other European countries, attempts have been made in Denmark to make passenger service on less frequented routes cost-effective and to dispense with steam-driven trains. For this purpose, the Danske Statsbaner had two gasoline-powered railcars built by the Danish locomotive factory Triangel in Odense in 1926 . The vehicles had the serial numbers 935 and 936 and were designated as M 21 and M 22 .

The M 21 was delivered on July 20, 1926 and completed its test drive on July 29, followed by the M 22 on August 6, 1926 and took a test drive on August 14. Both railcars were assigned to the 2nd district (Jutland / Funen).

Technical Equipment

In contrast to the DSB M 1–3 multiple units delivered a year earlier , the two vehicles had a six-cylinder petrol engine from Continental at each end of the car , which was used to drive in the respective direction. Unlike its predecessors, this was not outside of the car body, but was almost enclosed by it. The power transmission took place with a mechanical transmission.

DSB MC 21 and 22

In 1928 the DSB railcars were divided into series. These two were given the series designation DSB MC and the company numbers MC 21 and MC 22 . Previously, all DSB railcars had been numbered consecutively starting with "M" . The MC series was used again in 1950, because at that time the vehicles described here were no longer in the DSB's inventory.

After the renumbering, the two railcars remained in the 2nd district. In 1938 and 1939 they were parked in Århus.

In 1939 the MC 22 was relocated to Struer . From there it was relocated to Copenhagen- Østerport a year later . MC 21 started up again in 1940 in the machine depot in Århus Østbanegård (Århus Ø). At that time the station was the terminus of the Århus – Greena railway line and is now a stop on the Aarhus Nærbane . He was also transferred to Østerport in the same year.

DSB MC 611 and 612

In 1941 both vehicles were given new company numbers: MC 21 became MC 611 and MC 22 became MC 612 . In Østerport they were not used as planned, but were available to the General Directorate of the DSB for special tasks. In 1942 a direct stationing took place in the Centralværkstedet København (Cvk Kh - German  Central Workshop Copenhagen ) with the same area of ​​responsibility.

MC 611 was sold to Næstved – Præstø – Mern Banen in 1943 for 40,000 crowns . MC 612 was relocated to Ringsted in 1946 and retired there in 1947.

NPMB M 9

MC 612 was acquired in 1943 from Næstved – Præstø – Mern Banen (NPMB) and designated as NPMB M 9 . There it was equipped with two gas generators due to a lack of fuel during the war years and remained in use until 1945. The railcar was sold to Lyngby – Nærum Jernbane for 89,000 crowns that year .

LNJ M 6

At the Lyngby – Nærum Jernbane , the railcar was designated with the road number LNJ M 6 . An engine was damaged in 1946, which meant that the vehicle could no longer be used as a stand-alone vehicle for a long time. After an axle break on February 20, 1952 in Fuglevad , the railcar was parked. In 1954 it was sold as scrap to Det danske Stålvalseværk for 1,600 kroner and before that after a short time to Hillerød – Frederiksværk – Hundested Jernbane .

HFHJ C 28

The acquired former railcar was refurbished by Hillerød – Frederiksværk – Hundested Jernbane without engines and converted into a three-axle 3rd class passenger car. He received 75 seats in the passenger compartment. In 1966 it was retired. After being parked on a siding in Borupgård Teglværk , it caught fire in 1967 and was destroyed.
