The two-axle steam railcar of MÁV series BCmot VIIc were at 1904 Ganz & Co. in Budapest produced and served as early railcars for the Hungarian State Railways MÁV . Vehicles of this type were made according to the De Dion-Bouton system . They were similar to the MÁV series BCmot VIIa and had an increased output of 50 hp compared to this series. On the internet the railcar BCmot 03.006 is listed as type BCmot VIIb , on the photograph shown the railcar is clearly indicated as type BCmot VIIc .
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 are considered to be representatives of the 50 hp class.
No reliable data can be found in the literature on the use of vehicles. At the outbreak of the First World War , they were retired.
technical features
The car body corresponded to the standard of the then valid principles of passenger car construction and had only a few minor changes compared to the previous model. The steam engine was stored in the front room.
The vehicle had a water tube boiler developed by De Dion-Bouton and manufactured by Ganz and a steam engine from the same manufacturer. The structure of the steam generator and steam engine was identical to that of the previous model, and the output of this model could be increased to 50 hp.
