retained steam boiler heating (for coaches) and other detail different from the later 2095.04~2095.15. The second batch were intended for
cosists with "Webasto" coach heating. All locomotives of this series are still in service, presently on the Pinzgauerbahn

The coaches were built between 1937 and 1949, and was the first series of all-steel narrow gauge coaches. |
Many nicknames were used, but they became universally knowl as Krimmler, named after the line Zell/See-Krimml (Pinzgaubahn), where they were first used in service. |
Deliveries started with 6 units, the 2nd class coach presently numbered B4ip/s3050, and the combined passenger/baggage coaches BD4ip/s4260 to 4264.
Then from 1940, the other twelve units were delivered, which are today's B4ip/s3060 to 3069 and BD4ip/s4265 and 5500. |
Over time, changes had been made; essentially the installation of half-windows and Webasto heating. |
They were mainly used on the Pinzgaubahn, the Ybbstalbahn; but also the Bregenzerwald-Bahn and the Steyrtal-Bahn until end of service on those lines.
BD4ip/s 4261 made a brief excursion to the Waldviertler Schmalsputbahn. |
All 18 coaches are still in use. |
