The MÁV series Bamot were diesel-mechanical railcars of the Hungarian state railways Magyar Államvasutak (MÁV) for express and express train traffic on non-electrified main and branch lines . The vehicles were developed by the vehicle manufacturer Rába in Győr from 1956 and delivered until 1962.

history

The railcars were developed for light branch line traffic at the MÁV and were used by both the MÁV and the Raaberbahn (Gysev). Only two vehicles were made.

Both vehicles were used on the Raaberbahn until around the end of the 1990s. The Bamot 701 has been preserved and is now one of the MÁV museum vehicles in the Budapest Railway Park .

technical features

The railcars had two independent, underfloor arranged drive systems. A drive system initially consisted of the eight-cylinder four-stroke diesel engine JH 13.5 / 17, a four-speed change gear and a spur gear reversing gear. The inner axles of the bogies were driven by cardan shafts. In 1967 Rába switched the railcars to diesel-hydraulic drive. Two MAN diesel engines with 180 hp at 1800 rpm were installed, which drove a two-converter gearbox.

Underframe and box form a self-supporting lightweight construction. Both vehicles differ in the arrangement of the driver's cab ladders and the equipment with or without a toilet. The specified technical data refer to the original variant.

Other vehicles with the designation Bamot of the MÁV

Because of the outbreak of the Second World War , three railcars from Ganz & Co. , Budapest , intended for a railway company in Argentina , could no longer be delivered. They were taken over by MÁV and given the numbers 320-322 . The railcars had the B'2 'wheel arrangement and reached a top speed of 95 km / h. They had two driver's cabs. A luggage compartment was attached to the driver's cab, which was located above the motor bogie. The vehicles had a middle entrance from which the passenger areas with 34 and 48 seats and the toilets could be reached on both sides.

The railcars had the following technical data: length over buffers 25,748 mm, service weight 40 t, axle load 16.5 t. The car body was in a steel skeleton structure in welding technology produced. Motor and trailer bogies were of the Árpád type . The railcars could be connected by remote control to multi-part railcar trains. The whereabouts of the vehicles is not known.

Two test railcars from 1966 from Ganz, Budapest, which were given the road numbers 201-202 , were also included. They had a hydromechanical power transmission and the B'2 'wheel arrangement.

Their maximum speed was 100 km / h. They had a central entrance from which the two passenger compartments with 24 seats each were accessible. The railcars had the following technical data: pivot spacing 16,800 mm, wheel base in the motor bogie 4,000 mm, total wheel base 19,010 mm, length over buffers 24,215 mm, service weight 40.5 t, friction weight 35 t and axle load 17.5 t. The engine drove a hydromechanical three-speed gearbox, this consisted of a flow converter in 1st gear, the other two gears were shifted mechanically. Apart from the listed technical data, there are no descriptions. The further whereabouts are not known.
