The two-axle steam railcars of the MÁV series BCmot VIId were manufactured in 1905 by Ganz & Co. in Budapest and served as early railcars for the Hungarian state railway MÁV . Vehicles of this type were made according to the De Dion-Bouton system . They were similar to the MÁV series BCmot VIIc and had a different car body and certain different dimensions in the vehicle structure compared to this series. The vehicles were uniformly listed with the designation 06 , designations with 03 were not listed. At Pospichal there are a total of four vehicles in this category, but only two railcars are mentioned on the Hungarian Wikipedia.

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. The two mentioned steam railcars are considered to be representatives of the 50 hp class with different body dimensions.

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. After the end of the World War, combustion railcars then prevailed on the former routes of the steam railcars.

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 BCmot VIIc. The larger dimensions of the car body and the larger wheelbase are particularly noticeable. 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.
