Product Features and Details
Prisoners also used to be transported to and from prisons using the railway lines. The inside of the cars was fitted with lockable prisoner cells and compartments for accompanying personnel. They were in service as part of normal passenger trains and travelled in accordance with special timetables. The Deutsche Reichsbahn used the frame from secondary line unit cars for its cell cars. In accordance with the previous designs of 1921 and 1926, a mass production of the Z 28 was acquired after 1928. The cars had room for 10 double-seat and 2 four-seat compartments and even had space for four accompanying personnel. The design was further developed and delivered in varying series at a later stage being in service with the DB until 1962.
