The Gr.Eb.KT 08 railcar was procured for operation at the Greußen-Ebeleben-Keulaer Eisenbahn (CPKE). Originally the vehicle was equipped with a two-engine system and the high engine output of 190 hp. In addition, the railcar with an axle base of 7,000 mm was the largest that WUMAG delivered to the small railroad department of the Provincial Association of Saxony . He was also used on the Ebeleben – Mühlhausen railway line . After 1949, the railcar was taken over by the Deutsche Reichsbahn in the GDR and designated as VT 135 517 . The railcar had been the parent vehicle in Nordhausen since 1950 . It was turned off in 1967. Formally, it was given the EDP designation 186 011-3 . In 1970 the vehicle was taken out of service and is no longer available today.
history
At the beginning of the 1930s, the Greußen-Ebeleben-Keulaer Eisenbahn faced economic problems that forced them to procure railcars for passenger transport.
For this reason, WUMAG procured a railcar with a powerful drive, which enabled freight wagons to be transported on the routes. Cattle were transported down the valley on the route.
In 1950 the vehicle was taken over by the Deutsche Reichsbahn in the GDR and designated as VT 135 517 . It was used constantly in Nordhausen. At the same time, with the VT 135 518 and the VT 135 519, two more vehicles were moved to Nordhausen, with which the passenger traffic was carried out on the adjacent routes with one sidecar each. Two vehicles were main vehicles and one was a reserve. The VT 135 517 got a new drive system with an output of 100 hp in 1960. The railcar was parked in 1967 and retired in 1970. Formally it was given the EDP designation 186 011-3 .
Constructive features
The railcar was one of a series of vehicles for the small railroad department of the Provincial Association of Saxony, of which Waggon- und Maschinenbau Görlitz (WUMAG) in Görlitz had created the design as early as 1933. This vehicle can be described as one of the first on the provincial Saxon routes and was similar to the T1 of the Kleinbahn Heudeber-Mattierzoll , which was called T 28 from 1940 and was destroyed by fire in 1944, only larger in size.
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 . They were later fitted with light pulling and bumpers for sidecar operation. Some vehicles, such as the Mühlhausen-Ebelebener Eisenbahn T 08 , already received the pulling and buffing equipment from the factory due to their intended task. As a brake, he had a one-way brake of the Knorr type , which was intended for a sidecar operation. The axles were only braked on one side. The drive axle was sent. 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 62 upholstered seats with armrests, an improvement in travel comfort at the time. A photo of the vehicle is shown in the literature. It shows the railcar with five side wall windows as an enlarged version of the WUMAG VT A 3099 .
The vehicle was originally powered by two six-cylinder four-stroke diesel engines with a high engine output of 190 hp. The power transmission was originally carried out via two Mylius gears and associated axle reversing gears , they were provided with a torque bracket. During the renovation work, a machine system was expanded, and the railcar with only one engine was downgraded from Horch to a single-engine system with only 100 hp . 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.
