These two-axle standard design passenger cars originally had wood roofs and interior walls. Later they were built entirely of metal as the type 29. By today’s standards these German Federal Railroad (DB) cars were very loud and they rumbled a great deal. For this reason they were nicknamed “Donnerbüchsen” or “Thunder Boxes”.
