Prototype information

Special bi-level transport cars based on the type Omm 55 high side gondola were built and permanently coupled together in pairs. The end walls and side doors were left off, and connecting metal plates were present on both levels so that cars could be driven the length of the entire train from both ends. The upper deck could be lowered to form a ramp at both ends of a pair of cars.
