At the beginning of the 1990s, DB began developing control cab
coaches for long-distance transit. The initial 75 control cab
coaches were built by converting passenger coaches from the

of twelve pressurized IC control cab coaches. These coaches are
designated Bpmbdzf 297.3 to distinguish them from the
“conventional” type. After the conversion within the scope of the
“IC mod overhaul”, the control cab coach vehicle number was
