The railcars LAG No. 761 and 762 were three-axle electric railcars of the Lokalbahn Aktien-Gesellschaft (LAG) for the operation on the branch line Türkheim – Bad Wörishofen .

When the LAG was nationalized , the railcars were taken over by the Deutsche Reichsbahn and designated as ET 186 01 and ET 186 02 . The head shape of the railcars was similar to LAG No. 772 . One railcar was taken over by the Deutsche Bundesbahn and served until the early 1960s. The vehicle is no longer available today.

history

The LAG operated several branch lines in southern Germany that were electrified and powered by railcars before 1900. The two railcars 761 and 762 came into the LAG's inventory in 1905 when they took over the Türkheim – Bad Wörishofen railway line originally built by the “Localbahn-Actien-Gesellschaft Wörishofen”. Both vehicles were always at home on this railway line during their LAG time.

When the LAG was taken over by the Deutsche Reichsbahn in 1938, the two railcars were also included in their inventory. In 1939, the Reichsbahn had after the start of World War II End of line electrical operation because the overhead line operating a near- flier Horst's the Air Force bothered. After the transfer to the Bad Aibling – Feilnbach railway line , both vehicles found a new field of activity. At first they shared their service with the ET 183 deployed here . In 1951, railcar 761 fell victim to an accident and had to be retired. The remaining railcars continued to operate between Bad Aibling and Feilnbach until the German Federal Railroad replaced the local direct current system there with single-phase alternating current (15 kilovolts 16 2/3 Hertz) and the remaining direct current railcars decommissioned . Originally it was planned to exhibit the vehicle in the Transport Museum in Nuremberg , but that did not happen.

construction

Originally the vehicles were designed with four axles with the wheel arrangement (1A) (A1). In order to be taken over by the LAG, however, the vehicle was converted into a three-axle vehicle and the car body was completely redesigned. This explains its similarity to LAG No. 772 , even though this vehicle was built about ten years later. Between two passenger compartments, a little off-center, was a luggage and service compartment with a double-leaf revolving door. The number of seats was eight in the 2nd class compartment and 30 in the 3rd class compartment.

The chassis of the car body was a riveted steel structure, the car body consisted of a wooden structure clad with sheet steel. The railcars were driven by two pin-bearing traction motors mounted in the outer axles . The axis arrangement was chosen for weight reasons.
