Can you find any examples of D-zug's or Eilzugs in the mid 50's? Also after examples of Z-zugs with Schlafwagens. |

Thanks for the great pictures of the BR 01, 17 and 39 hauled trains.
I get the monthly digital magazine Eisenbahn modellbahn magazin and the March issue has a feature on short trains in the modern era.
