HELJAN HE45522 - Railcar series MO 572 DSB, Ep.III, AC
The DSB MO series vehicles were diesel railcars that were built in several series for Danske Statsbaner (DSB) by the Danish engineering works Burmeister & Wain (B&W) in Copenhagen and Frichs in Aarhus. In 1935, the MO series was built as a more powerful version of the 1933 by Frichs The MP series was commissioned by DSB. The first two trains were built by B&W, with the car bodies supplied by Scandia A/S in Randers and the electrical equipment by Titan in Odense.
All other trains were built by Frichs and Scandia.
The simultaneous development of the MS Lyntog express multiple units led B&W, as Denmark's largest mechanical engineering company, to demand a share in the engine deliveries. Due to certain political pressure, DSB accepted the motorization of two MO railcars by B&W. The car bodies and bogies for the two vehicles were built by Scandia, while B&W supplied the engines and Thrige supplied the electrical equipment.
Compared to the MP series, a more powerful engine type was developed and these traction motors were also used in the Lyntog express railcars. The main innovations were an ASEA-Åkerman remote control system for double traction and the now two-axle bogie with the two electric traction motors. The railcars had a luggage compartment, a toilet and a driver's cab at each end.
