The Bavarian Pwg Bay 66 are two-axle baggage cars for use in freight trains according to sheet 239 from the car register for the Royal Bavarian State Railways from March 31, 1913 (or sketch no.136 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 fourth series of luggage trolleys for the BOB, these trolleys were commissioned by the companies Klett (10 trolleys) and Rathgeber in Munich. It was a type of car that was delivered with slightly larger dimensions than the first series from 1858. The wagons were intended exclusively for use in freight trains and were delivered between 1866 and 1868.

Constructive features

Underframe

The frame of the car was made entirely of iron profiles. As a towing device, the wagons had screw couplings according to VDEV . The drawbar was spring-loaded throughout and in the middle. The wagons originally had rod buffers as a shock device with an installation length of 620 mm and 360 mm for the buffer plates.

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 23. 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.

Car body

The frame of the car body consisted of a wooden frame structure, which was stiffened by steel drawstrings. Since the wagons were intended for use in freight trains from the outset, they were also given an outer panel of the car body made of vertical slats. The side and front walls were straight. The car body was divided into a large area for storing luggage and a 2030 mm service compartment. The flat barrel roof was provided on one side of the service area with a pulpit integrated into the car body, based on the BOB design. This served the train driver for observation and as a brakeman's position. This brakeman's position was accessible from both the inside and outside of the car. There was a 1460 mm wide sliding door on both sides for loading and unloading, which stood on rollers and was guided with head bars.

Furnishing

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

It was heated by a stove in the service room. There were static fans on the roof for ventilation. Some of the wagons were equipped with a line for steam heating and could therefore also be lined up in passenger trains.
