Good afternoon, balkan friends,

Christo, which is that green and white coach, painted in halves, that appears in advance of the OSE's ARAD coach in the first picture? Is that a TCDD's coach similar to that in ACME's Istambul Express set?

Regards

interesting, it's not an ABm but an ABpm (?)

Jason will enlighten us.......

P comes from PULLMAN which means that there are not compartments (there is a center corridor) ...

It's exactly like the NIK. ΚΙΟΛΕΪΔΗΣ 200 km/h coaches where there are Bmz (WITH compartments) and Bmpz (WITHOUT compartments).

thanks Jason, you logged in just in time. have a look around, there are some more topics that need your treat

OK, how many ABm coaches were like that and how many compartment vehicles, any idea? Were they originally opens or converted when in service?

[christo]

OK

... the BDms and the BRms had no classifications written under their running number...

...the ABms had ABPm...(good explanation Jason, thanks)

and the Bm like the one in my photo had BRm. What ?
