Hi Tony. This is a railcar originally of a batch built by Westwaggon for the Deutsche Reichsbahn in 1939/40 & numbered 137 347-366 & 137 377-96. Trailer un-powered cars were produced for most units. 32 survived WW2 & entered Deutsche Bundesbahn service in West Germany being classified as VT60.5. Three units VT60 504.511 & 514 in 1947 were allocated to the US Military Other railcars were also used by the US Military for a period in the post war years often as personal trains for US Military Commanders. The remaining civilian units continued in revenue service into the late 1970`s. Hope this is of interest Regards Mike
