Role model information

Even before the war, standardized large containers began to be transported to the customer using rail and road vehicles. However, the beginning of the Second World War stopped the further spread of the system. In 1949 the DB took up the pa container system again and decided to introduce it on a large scale. While the containers were being rebuilt, the underframes of various pre-war cars were used for the cars, which were plentiful with war damage to the bodies. The conversion included, among other things, Omm 34 running gear, which were classified as BT(hs) 30, in a common number range with BT cars from other donor cars. After converting a total of 273 BT 30s to various donor types, the exclusive construction of new container wagons began in 1952. Still redrawn as Lb(r)s577, the last converted BT 30 cars left service in 1971. Numerous open and closed containers were created for a wide variety of cargo, and there were also special containers for liquids, food such as beer and the like, as well as for transporting frozen goods. From the end of the 1960s, increasingly pressured by the emerging containers, traffic with pa containers only ended at the end of the 1990s.
