As BDMH 2Z + 4A / 12 , a passenger and luggage will gear - Dieseltriebzug the Greek national railway company Hellenic Railways Organization (OSE), respectively. A total of four vehicles of this type were produced. They are used on the Diakopto – Kalavrita railway in the northern Peloponnese , which has a track width of 750 mm.
The multiple units are manufactured by Stadler Rail , from whose GTW the design was derived. The type designation is derived from the Swiss designation system: BDmh stands for a railcar with 2nd class (B) and luggage compartment (D), fuel drive (m) and combined gear and adhesion traction (h after the m); 2Z + 4A / 12 stands for two axes with gear drive and four with adhesion drive of a total of 12 axes. The multiple units were delivered to Greece between March and July 2007. Since the line was largely closed for renovation work until the end of 2008, the locomotives were only in operation for a short time for test drives on the adhesion section and were otherwise parked. After further test drives, which also led to Kalavrita from May 6, 2009, scheduled operations were resumed on July 2, 2009.
No official approval is required for rack railways in Greece. However, for legal reasons, Stadler insisted on an official acceptance, which was therefore carried out by the Swiss Federal Office of Transport in accordance with Swiss guidelines.
