1521 battery-baggage coach |
|
|
available from 1957 until 1960/62. Until which year the battery coach was available is not really specified - at least until 1960 - most probably until the first 1013 / 1550 were issued in 1962 |

light or dark grey.
The difference to the normal superstructure concerns the recesses (to have the cables pass through towards the loco) punched into the side wall of each wagon - there are two on each side. Another hole is punched in to the "destination sign" on each side - to fix the battery compartment by means of two rivets. |
Another method of fixing the battery box was achieved by 2 fishplates each side of the coach besides the "destination sign" |

| this version having rivets holes (without rivets) and fishplates - the battery compartment is held by the fishplates |
