The two-axle steam railcar of MÁV series BCmot VIIb were at 1903. Ganz & Co. in Budapest produced and served as early railcars for the Hungarian State Railways MÁV . The vehicles of this type were manufactured according to the De Dion-Bouton system and, with a few exceptions, were identical to the BCmot VIIa railcars .
history
Railway lines of the Hungarian state railway MÁV were considered to be particularly steam railcar-friendly around the 1900s , as the company owned many branch lines with little traffic and relatively low gradients. Most of the vehicles required were manufactured by Ganz in Budapest. For this purpose, the company acquired licenses from De Dion-Bouton and built steam railcars with 35, 50 and 80 hp.
According to the literature, a total of 89 steam railcars should have been delivered to MÁV between Ganz and the end of 1906; Pospichal only mentions 30 vehicles. These three mentioned steam railcars only differed in a few details from the vehicles of the BCmot VIIa series. There were 20 seats in the 3rd class compartment and the division of the side windows was chosen somewhat differently.
