From 1955 onwards, the DB hired more than 300 twin-engined railbuses for passenger transport on branch lines, along with almost the same
number of control cab coaches and intermediate wagons. Those hardly differed in appearance from the railcars, reached a maximum speed of 90 km/h,
and had a power output of 2 x 110 kW.
