Plant for signal and security technology in Berlin
The VEB work for signaling and safety systems Berlin (WSSB) was a state-owned industrial company in the German Democratic Republic (GDR).
timeline
Because of the great need for railway safety technology, a merger of several state-owned companies (VEB) took place in 1951/1952. This affected VEB Gaselan, VEB Weinitschke, VEB Elektro-Signal- und Maschinenbau Halle (Elsima), and Signalbau Potsdam-Babelsberg.
VEB Signalbau Berlin was created, which was merged with VEB Fernmeldewerk Treptow on July 1, 1953 to form VEB Plant for Signal and Security Technology (WSSB) Berlin.
From then on it was the only production facility in the GDR for signaling technology and interlockings .
In 1992 the WSSB was integrated into Siemens Verkehrstechnik , now Siemens Transportation Systems .

Crossing safety systems (old name)
VEB WSSB also manufactured safety systems for level crossings , abbreviated “WÜSA (old) / BÜSA (current)”. Call barriers were also included .
- eVs 63,
- eVs 63b, electrical full barrier systems, can also be used as call barriers,
- Hs 64, (train operated half-barrier or stop light system, then Hl 64)
- Hs 64b, Hl 64b (long-term standard design)
- Hs 64 automatic, for use on routes with an automatic route block, there is a station and a route variant,
- Hs 64c, Hl64c, completely new development with type III relay and full barrier drives.
Stop light systems in WSSB types differ from half-barrier systems only in the lack of barrier drives. These were easy to retrofit.
