The decision to build a combined coach was taken to avoid overcapacity generated by the use of individual coaches for the restaurant and luggage functions.
These coaches were equipped with a kitchen where hot food could be prepared on a coal stove and a dining area for 15 people. In addition, they had a bar, a conductor's department, a telephone booth for possible later installation of a wireless train telephone (which never came) and a spacious one for an information worker (who had never been there either).
The luggage area was equipped with a side corridor to allow passenger to easily cross from one side to the other. Double sliding doors are on both sides.
Technical details:
- Length: 22,650 mm
- Weight: 48 tons
- Number of seats: 15x seats in the restauration area.
