About Mitropa sleeping cars:

Mitropa sleeping cars were designed to provide comfortable overnight travel on long-distance routes. Equipped with compartments featuring sleeping berths, they played a key role in both domestic and international passenger services. In Deutsche Reichsbahn service, these cars remained in use into the 1970s despite the introduction of newer rolling stock.
