Product Features and Details
From 1916 onwards, the Berlin Central Railway Office and the Central Purchasing Company bought refrigerator waggons in large quantities. The basis for the procurement was the covered goods waggon according to the A2 master drawing. From the outside, they were only recognizable as refrigerator wagons by the second ventilating shutter, the roof ventilators, and a white coat of paint to protect against sunlight. The waggons were leased to various war societies and Reich agencies, so their waggon number was not followed by a P. They were used for the transport of frozen meat and butter, since more and more frozen meat had to be sent instead of live animals for slaughter.
