The Bavarian Pwg Bay 65 are two-axle baggage cars for use in freight trains according to sheet 240 from the car register for the Royal Bavarian State Railways from March 31, 1913 (or sketch No. 137 from the car register from March 31, 1897) .

history

The wagons are those which the KBSts.B. after the takeover of the BOB in 1876. The cars were run under category D at the BOB and were assigned to category P when they were taken over . The design and main dimensions of the cars corresponded to the passenger cars of the III. Class.

procurement

As the second and third series of luggage trolleys for the BOB, these trolleys were commissioned in two lots from the Rathgeber company in Munich. It was a type of car that was delivered with slightly larger dimensions than the first series from 1858. A third series with only four cars had very short dimensions, but was generally identical in structure.

Constructive features

Underframe

The frame of the car was a combination of iron longitudinal beams and wooden cross beams and end beams (buffer beams). As a towing device, the wagons had screw couplings according to VDEV . The drawbar was spring-loaded throughout and in the middle. Originally, the wagons had double-slotted basket buffers with an installation length of 612 mm and 360 mm for the buffer plates. These were later replaced by ones with an installation length of 620 mm.

drive

The cars had axle brackets of the short, straight design riveted from sheet metal and angles. The axles were stored in sliding axle bearings. The wheels had spoked wheel bodies of the Bavarian type 24. The suspension springs 1516 millimeters long each had six leaves. The cross-section of the leaves was 96 × 13 millimeters. There was a hand spindle brake that could be operated from the pulpit of the service room. In the middle of the car there was the brake deflection in the typical Bavarian design. Individual cars had already installed a Westinghouse air brake .

Car body

The frame of the car body consisted of a wooden frame structure, which was stiffened by steel drawstrings. The walls were covered with sheet metal on the outside and wood on the inside. The side and front walls were straight, the entrance doors indented. The car body was divided into a large area for storing luggage and a 2000 mm long conductor or post compartment. One side of the flat barrel roof over the duty room was provided with a pulpit integrated into the car body, which the driver used for observation and as a brakeman's position. This brakeman's position was accessible from both the inside and outside of the car. For loading and unloading there was a 1470 mm wide sliding door on both sides, which stood on rollers and was guided with head bars.

Furnishing

According to the WV of 1879 as well as that of 1897, all cars have built in a toilet. In the WV of 1913 a remark is made that there are no abortions. It can therefore be assumed that in the meantime the abortions have been removed by renovations. In addition, the wagons were also equipped with a "dog compartment".

According to the WV of 1879, the wagons of the last delivery series also had bonded compartments. In addition, the service compartment was shortened to a length of 1050 mm.

The wagons were illuminated with oil lamps. In the years 1936 to 1929 electrical lighting was installed.

It was heated by an oven. There were static fans on the roof for ventilation. All cars were equipped with a line for steam heating and could thus also be lined up in passenger trains.
