News from the wagon workshop

At the moment, we are visually refurbishing coach 20 of the Gelnhäuser Kreisbahn. We have already refurbished car 19 so that we will soon be able to present the original train of the former private railway from Wächtersbach to Bad Orb (together with the diesel locomotive VL 12). In the last few months, the body of wagon 20 was filled and sanded. It was then given a new coat of paint. In addition to a new coat of paint, the car, which had been badly damaged by vandalism, also received new window panes. Some work will now follow in the interior.

Work on the interior of the “Donnerbuechse” Bi 84 803 is on the home straight. New wooden panels have been fitted and then wallpapered. Furthermore, cleaning work was carried out on the moving parts in the undercarriage and the measuring device was fitted. In addition, a new axle generator was installed to generate electricity.
