As a result of the goods
wagon standardisation driven forward by the Staatsbahnwagonverband,
the so-called ‘Verband-type’ came into being in 1910. From the outside
the wagons resembled those of the Länder railways but were much more
strongly built. As a result, their load capacity was raised from
15.75t to 17.5t. Owing to its exchange of traffic with the state
railway, the Teutoburger Wald Eisenbahn was obliged to provide and
procure a number of goods wagons of this type, and did so in 1913.
Most were lost without trace in the upheavals of 2 world-wars.
Nevertheless 102 TWE survived on its home line and served, first under
the number G 502 and later G 124 (II), to carry breakdown equipment
for the TWE’s workshops in Lengerich-Hohne.
After being taken out of
service in 2001 we took over the vehicle for storage. Ideas for the
future are for it to serve as a bicycle-carrier in the 'Teuto-Express'. |
