as DBAG Class 672. In 1998, some vehicles were used by the
Butzbach-Licher Eisenbahn on the Friedberg-Friedrichsdorf railway line because the ordered
GTW 2/6 could not be delivered on time. 19 vehicles have been used by the
Burgenlandbahn in
Saxony-Anhalt since 1999 (as of 1 July 2008). The vehicles are stationed in
Weißenfels. Originally the vehicles were called
KEG VT 3.01 to VT 3.18. Since the takeover of the vehicles by
DB Regio in the year 2004 they are listed as 672 series. In the inventory there are the vehicles 672 901 to 904, 906 to 911 and 913 to 920. 672 912 is parked after a fire and 672 905 was retired on 27 November 2014. From April 2006 to December 2006, the vehicles were not used because of a damage of the frame for safety reasons until their renovation. Since March 2012, 672 919 and 920 have been stored as pre-production models. They have solid shafts for which there are no test instructions that meet the requirements of the
Federal Railway Authority (EBA). Due to a redesign of the VT 2E of the
Frankfurt-Königsteiner Eisenbahn (as well as the
Butzbach-Licher Eisenbahn, a subsidiary of the
Hessische Landesbahn), three units of this type were used from 2006 to 2007 on the
Königsteiner Bahn. These came from Bombardier and were on loan. In the meantime, they belong to the
Hanseatische Eisenbahn. In December 2011, the
Städtebahn Sachsen rented a vehicle from Bombardier, which was mostly used between
Pirna and
Neustadt in Sachsen. In the meantime, the vehicle has been repainted and operates since December 2012 on the lines won by the
Eisenbahngesellschaft Potsdam in the
Prignitz. ==References==
