1520 Battery passenger coach |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
available from 1957 until 1960 /62. Until which year the battery coaches were available is not to my knowledge - at least 1960 - most probably 1962 when the first "modern" battery locos 1013 / 1550 were issued. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Battery boogie coach, 3 AAA-sized batteries to serve the battery operated tender locos. Battery box fixed by 2 rivets. |
Another method of fixing the battery box was achieved by 2 fishplates each side of the coach. |
||||||||||||||||||||||
and the 3rd version has fishplates and rivets |
from below. The batteries were kept in place by means of a small tin - rivet fixed between chassis and boogie |
||||||||||||||||||||||
