A comprehensive history of the DB Class VT08 and VT125 diesel multiple units, known as “Eierköpfe” due to their rounded appearance. Looks at the development, design and building of the units as well as their use as long distance rolling stock, before electrification saw them relegated to regional passenger services in the Sachsen and Schleswig-Holstein areas. Also looks at the two preserved examples and at the units built as US Army saloon vehicles. Superbly illustrated with black & white photographs, diagrams and reproduced documents. German text. Hardback. 248 pages. Published 2018.
