About the B4yg coaches:

The B4yg coaches were developed as part of the Deutsche Bundesbahn’s modernization programme in the 1950s. To meet increasing passenger demand, existing underframes and bogies from older coaches were reused and fitted with new welded steel bodies.

These coaches featured central entrances with wide double doors and improved sealing systems, marking a significant step forward in comfort and safety. With a top speed of up to 120 km/h, they served as a backbone of passenger services for decades and remained in operation until the late 20th century.
