Second Pt carriage successfully into operation

As part of the conversion project for historic vehicles with the VGF, the second Pt carriage after the k-carriage series has now been upgraded for the 750 V DC tram network.

The vehicles, which were originally designed for the 600 V DC network, have been fitted with a step-down converter and can now be operated in the 750 V DC network.

The enclosure of the step-down converter has been designed to match the interior design of the vehicle. The design, installation and IBN are carried out as a complete package by GEZ.

After the Pt carriage 128, the Pt carriage 148 was successfully put into operation by our project team on site last week.

The next step is to convert the m-carriage. A total of 13 further conversions are scheduled to be completed by the end of 2026.
