The railcar DKB T 1 was a railcar of the Delitzscher Kleinbahn . It was put into service in 1937 as the second railcar on the small railroad line, after a DWK benzene railcar entered service on it in 1932 . This vehicle was called DKB T 2 , although it was first used on this route .

The vehicle DKB T 1 was given the designation T 12 by the small railroad department of the Provincial Association of Saxony in 1940 . After the war it was taken over by the Deutsche Reichsbahn in the GDR as VT 135 530 and from 1970 onwards it was given the new EDP designation 186 020-4 . The vehicle is colloquially classified as a Großer Wettiner . It was used in operational service until 1969. The vehicle is no longer there.

history

Delitzscher Kleinbahn T1

With the increase in the number of passengers on the provincial Saxon branch lines, the Kleine Wettiners had reached the limits of their capabilities on their routes. As a result, the general administration in Merseburg commissioned Gottfried Lindner AG in Ammendorf to build an enlarged series of multiple units with an axle base of 5.8 m, a length of 11 m and around 40 seats . This vehicle was one of the first two vehicles; it was put into service by Delitzscher Kleinbahn AG in mid-1937. An identical vehicle was put into operation in the same year at the Kleinbahn Ellrich-Zorge, in 1939 the Delitzscher Kleinbahn AG, the Langensalzaer Kleinbahn AG and the Kleinbahn Wallwitz-Wettin each received a vehicle.

Since some technical data about the DKB T 1 is missing in the literature , that of the great Wettiner on the Wallwitz – Wettin railway line was chosen as the basis. Individual dimensions can therefore differ from the DKB T 1 .

This large Wettiner was approved in April 1937 by the small railway department in Merseburg for operation on the Delitzscher Kleinbahn AG. It is noticeable that the engine output corresponds to that of a small Wettiner , which soon led to the relocation of the vehicle from the Salzwedeler Kleinbahnen . Obviously, however, the performance of the DKB T 1 was sufficient in comparison with the DWK multiple unit. Obviously the performance of the vehicle was insufficient, because in 1939 the T3 of the Salzwedeler Kleinbahnen was brought to Delitzsch in exchange for the DWK railcar. From then on, this vehicle, with its 120 kW output, was the parent vehicle of the Delitzscher Kleinbahn. Around 1949 the DKB T 1 was not operational.

VT 135 530

From 1951 to 1955 the vehicle was in the Dessau repair shop for repairs . After the repair, the vehicle does not seem to have returned to Delitzsch, because it was reported to the Halle P depot from 1955 to 1956 and to operation on the Mockrehna – Schildau railway line from 1956 to 1959 . The vehicle stayed there and was parked in 1969. It was still a few years on the sidings of the railway depots Leipzig and Altenburg .

186 020-4

Formally it has been given the EDP designation 186 020-4 . Retirement dates and scrapping are not known.

Today there are only photos of the vehicle.

Constructive features

The railcar belonged to a series of railcars for provincial Saxon small railways, of which WUMAG in Görlitz had created the design as early as 1933. As a result, WUMAG, Dessauer Waggonfabrik and Lindner manufactured several vehicles for these small railways. This vehicle represents the variant of the Großer Wettiner , which was manufactured by Lindner in Ammendorf .

The underframe and the box frame, which was clad on the outside with 1.5 mm thick sheet metal, consisted of electrically welded structural steel profiles. The vehicles were designed as solo vehicles. In return, they initially had no pulling and buffing equipment . For the sidecar operation, they were later provided with light pulling and bumpers. As a braking device, he had a single-release Knorr type brake , which was intended for use with a sidecar. The axles were only braked on one side. The drive axle was sanded with compressed air. The interior was divided into the passenger compartment and the two driver's cabs. They were separated from one another by partitions and revolving doors. The floor was made of pine wood covered with linoleum. The machine system could be serviced via flaps in the floor. The vehicle had 35 upholstered seats with armrests, an improvement in travel comfort at the time. In contrast to the vehicles of the Kleine Wettiner , the vehicle had a toilet.

The vehicle was powered by the six-cylinder four-stroke diesel engine OM 65 from Mercedes-Benz . It is not clear from the literature what replacement engine was used for this vehicle when it was repaired from 1951 to 1955, because the original engine was definitely worn out. The power was transmitted via the Mylius gearbox and an axle reversing gearbox, which was provided with a torque bracket. The vehicle was heated by a warm water heater, which was designed in such a way that the interior of the vehicle could be heated to +20 ° C at an outside temperature of −20 ° C.
