Product Description :
In 1971, the DB developed two prototypes of the 614 series. These diesel trains, designed especially for regional and regional traffic – a further development of the series 624 / 634 – were given a slightly tapered wagon body upwards, because a so-called "track-arc dependent wagon cabinet control system (GST)" was to be installed. This gave the train its typical shape. However, as the GST did nothing at the end of the day, the 40 series vehicles delivered between 1973 and 1977 were dispensed with this - but the housing shape remained.MAN produced the intermediate wagons for 25 units, while the wagon factory Uerdingen produced the railcars equipped with a 330 kW or later 367 kW engine. The last 15 fittings (from 1975) were then completely manufactured by MAN. Although the multiple trains were designed as 3-piece units (204 places in the second and 2 x 12 places in the first class), they were designed with multiple traction abilities and – especially in the initial period – were occasionally also driven 4-parts with an additional middle wagon. A multiple traction, on the other hand, was rather a rarity, and in later years there were almost no more.The first 25 units were assigned to the Bw Nuernberg, from where the trains were used on all non-electrified routes of Franconia and the Oberpfalz. A typical color at that time was the "pop" paint blood orange / pebble gray. The last 15 trains – meanwhile in the color ocean blue / ivory – were stationed in Bw Braunschweig, from where they were used on the routes for example to Paderborn, Goettingen, Muenster or Bielefeld. They could also be observed at the end of their deployment time on the Buchholz railway via Soltau to Hannover.Most of the vehicles were later painted in mint-turquoise/light-gray and at the end almost exclusively in traffic-red. In the course of a partial modernization, several units received a stronger (448 kW) engine. Almost all of the vehicles recently stationed by DB AG in Nuremberg and Braunschweig were modernized once again at the end, e.g. if the luggage compartment was removed, the windows were replaced with others and a window was added. Of course, these case-specific changes were also taken into account in the LILIPUT models!On February 15, 2011 – after an operating period of exactly 40 years – the last operational unit that had been stationed in Nuremberg since its delivery in 1973 and even had the "Pop" paint (614 005 / 006 and 914 003) was handed over to the DB Museum in Nuremberg. It is now available for special trips.Our model, stationed in Nuremberg with the destination display "Bad Kissingen", was delivered in October 1973. He traveled many Franconian and Upper Palatinate routes, e.g. as RB on the 47 km long, single-track and non-electrified branch line (formerly the main train) from Gemuenden to Bad Kissingen (DB-Kurzbuchenstecker track 803), which is also known as the "Franconian Saaletalbahn". The route essentially follows the hall. The train was painted in traffic red in 1999 and retired in November 2010 (the intermediate wagon 914 012-0 already in January 2007).This text is machine translated.
