The KAP T 1 railcar was a vehicle of the Prettin-Annaburger Kleinbahn .

It was procured because the steam locomotive and wagon traffic proved uneconomical over the short distance. The KAP T 1 railcar is one of the first vehicles of the so-called Wettin railcars produced by Gottfried Lindner AG in Ammendorf . It was later given the designation T 5 by the small railway department of the Provincial Association of Saxony . The railcar was taken over by the Deutsche Reichsbahn in the GDR in 1949 and designated as VT 135 534 . From 1970 it was given the EDP designation 186 023-8 . The vehicle was active until the 1970s and was retired in 1976. It is no longer there today.

history

After the first Kleine Wettiners achieved good results on the railways of the small railroad department of the Provincial Association of Saxony, other private railways wanted to order railcars of this configuration in order to operate economically.

Further procurement was initially delayed because the small railroad department and the manufacturer could not agree on the price for the vehicles. Only after further negotiations was an agreement reached with the Lindner company in Ammendorf. In order not to infringe the patent rights of Waggon- und Maschinenbau Görlitz , the vehicles had to be designed differently. This affected areas of the interior design, the front section and the roof area.

In 1935, only 17,000 travelers used the trains on the approximately twelve-kilometer-long small railway. This brought losses to the Kleinbahn, which could be offset by the lower operating costs of the T 1 and the subsequent reduction in tariffs.

After the nationalization of the railway, it was designated as VT 135 534 from 1949 and continued to be used on its old main line until 1955. The vehicle's log book has been preserved. The vehicle was mainly used from the Salzwedel depot.

The vehicle was maintained in the Dessau repair shop until 1961 (seven stays of up to seven months), after which it was repaired in the Wittenberge repair shop (five stays of up to three months). From 1963 the rail buses VT 2.09 were often used for the services .

After 1970 the railcar was designated as 186 023-8 , retired in 1976 and scrapped in the Wittenberge repair shop in the same year.

Constructive features

The railcar was part of a series for the small railways in the province of Saxony, of which Waggon- und Maschinenbau Görlitz (WUMAG) in Görlitz had created the design in 1933. This vehicle was one of four that were built by Lindner in Ammendorf. Externally, Lindner vehicles can be distinguished from those from WUMAG by the different roof shape and front lights.

The underframe and the box frame, which was clad on the outside with 1.5 mm thick sheet metal, consisted of electrically welded structural steel profiles. The vehicles were designed as individual vehicles. That is why they did not initially have a pulling and pushing device. For the sidecar operation, they were later provided with light pulling and bumpers. As a braking device they had a one-way brake of the Knorr type , which was intended for a sidecar operation. The axles were only braked on one side. The drive axle was sent. The interior was divided into the passenger compartment and the two driver's cabs. These were separated from each other by partitions and revolving doors. The floor was made of pine wood covered with linoleum. The machine system could be serviced via flaps in the floor. The vehicle had 37 upholstered seats with armrests, an improvement in travel comfort at the time. Due to the short distance, there is no toilet.

The vehicle was powered by a four-cylinder four-stroke diesel engine OM 65 from Mercedes-Benz . In the 1950s, the worn out original engine was replaced by a replacement engine from the Kombinat Industrieverband Fahrzeugbau (IFA). The power was transmitted via the Mylius gearbox and an axle reversing gearbox, which was provided with a torque bracket. The vehicle was heated by a warm water heater, which was designed in such a way that the interior of the vehicle could be heated to +20 ° C at an outside temperature of −20 ° C.
