With the onset of the industrial revolution,
more and more steel works are built in the
Saarland. Especially to supply these mills and
steel works, the Prussian State Railway
bought special coal hopper cars from 1883
onwards. On an undercarriage with a 2,800
mm axle base sat a funnel-shaped structure,
which could be unloaded very quickly both
via a flap on the left and right and through
floor flaps over a deep bunker. With a freight
capacity of 13.2 m3 , the cars had a payload
of 10 t. As the construction type proved itself
in its special area of application, the design
was revised and from 1897 onwards a reinforced
type was purchased. The cars built
according to design IIc12 had a larger hold
with a capacity of 15.3 m3 and could now
handle a payload of 12.5 t.

Pair of Log Cars DRG
Road no. 371, 374 Regensburg
Coal Car DRG, Set of 2
Road no. 921 Mainz, 1341 Mainz
The Deutsche Reichsbahn took over a number
of log cars or swivelling bolster cars from the
regional railways. They were all allocated to
the “Regensburg” region. Since the next generation
was only produced in insignificant
quantities, the DRG had to continue to rely
on the old swivelling bolster cars for a long
time. There were detailed regulations which
had to be adhered to when using log cars,
which is why the log car pairs were only
allowed to be coupled to the end of the train.
The number of swivelling bolster car pairs
was also limited depending on the route they
took and the type of train.

The Deutsche Reichsbahn took over all cars
and classified them as Otr(u) in the „Mainz“
class district and continued to use them
exclusively in the Saarland. One producing
steel works on the Saar is today to be found
in Dillingen. The Völklinger steel mill was
completely preserved after it was shut down
and today is one of the UNESCO world heritage
sites as a unique museum. In addition to
cultural events of all types, impressive information
can be obtained on steel production
and its history. The exhibits also include several
railway vehicles of various epochs, which
are shown in their historic environment.

The K.W.St.E. described its flat cars as slag
cars. From 1863 onwards, 75 slag cars with
two platforms were purchased, some of
which were converted open J-type freight
cars. These proved to be extremely practical
in construction trains for putting tarmac on
platforms.
