History and commitment

LG 802

The railcar was built in 1938 by the Dessauer Waggonfabrik for Lietuvos Geležinkeliai (LG) in Lithuania. After the invasion of the Wehrmacht , it became part of the Deutsche Reichsbahn's holdings and was driven westwards in 1944, damaged. The original operating log of the railcar was lost as a result of war events in World War II , which means that this period is incomplete. At times he was probably in service with the Lusatian Railway .

According to Herman Gijsbert Hesselink , the number 802 points to a designation of the Latvian state railway Latvijas Valsts Dzelzsceļi (LVD).

RAG VT 3 / VT 03 / VT 13

The Deutsche Reichsbahn sold the vehicle in 1944 to Regentalbahn AG (RAG), which sent it to the wagon factory Gebrüder Credé in Kassel for refurbishment. There it was given the new factory number Credé 1944/2423 and was returned to operational service in 1945.

Although the railcar was larger than the other two-axle vehicles on the Regentalbahn, the area of ​​responsibility coincided with that of the VT 02 . The vehicle designated as the VT 3 was just as at home on the Gotteszell – Blaibach railway line as it was on the Deggendorf – Metten railway line . At an unknown point in time, the company number was changed to VT 03 . With the takeover of AG Lokalbahn Lam – Kötzting by the Regentalbahn in 1973, this operating number was duplicated. In 1974 the car had to be parked and repaired after a broken axle. In 1978, as part of a general inspection, it received a new engine and a hydrodynamic transmission as well as new headlamps with separate tail lights. Since then, at the latest, it has had the new company number VT 13 .

RBG VT 13

The railcar was transferred to the Regental-Bahnbetriebs-Gesellschaft (RBG) as the VT 13 in 1989 and was in service with the Regentalbahn until the main inspection was due in 1990. Since the last passenger train ran on the Deggendorf – Metten route on September 23, 1983 and regular passenger traffic on the Viechtach – Gotteszell section was planned for April 30, 1991, the railcar was superfluous.

DE VT 13

In 1992 the railcar was sold to the Dortmunder Eisenbahn GmbH , which designated it as T1 and used it to travel its rail network in the Ruhr area. The interior of the vehicle was redesigned in the form of a conference room and the toilet was expanded.

DAY 27

Since 2016, the railcar has been operated by the Tegernsee-Bahn operating company under the road number TAG 27 . After an extensive renovation, it has a white and blue paintwork again. and has been approved again since February 2018. The driver's cab with the controls has only changed slightly compared to the times of the Regentalbahn. For use on the Tegernsee Railway, it was given wheel flange lubrication and PZB 90 .

Constructive features

The railcar had an open- plan compartment for passengers without partition walls, which was only separated from the boarding areas. The front had a three-part window front. Except for the headlamps, nothing about this arrangement has changed over the years. The roof shape was flatter and more streamlined than the VT 02.

Originally, the railcar is said to have had an engine with an output of 180 hp. Since the documents were lost during the Second World War, the manufacturer, type and other details are not known. After the reconstruction in 1945, the drive was diesel-mechanical with a Mylius gearbox , and from 1978 diesel-hydraulic. In 1968 he received modern headlamps.
