Summary edit

Description
Deutsch: VT 18.16-175 005.Dresden Hauptbahnhof: Für die erste internationale Strecke Berlin - Prag der Deutschen Reichsbahn nach dem 2. Weltkrieg wurden neue Schnelltriebzüge benötigt. Von der Deutschen Bundesbahn erworbene Altbauzüge reichten nicht aus. So wurde beim VEB Waggonbau Görlitz ab 1962 der VT 18.16 entwickelt, welches nahe lag, da bereits die damalige Waggon- und Maschinenbau-AG Görlitz (WUMAG) den berühmten "Fliegenden Hamburger" entwickelt hatte.

Eingesetzt war dieser Triebwagen mit bis zu vier Mittelwagen als "Vindobona" Berlin - Prag (CSSR) - Wien (Östereich), ab 21. Mai 1968 wurde er als "Berlinaren" eingesetzt auf der Strecke Berlin - Malmö (Schweden) mit Fährpassage von Saßnitz nach Trelleborg (Schweden). Zum Schluss fuhr dieser Zug noch als "Karlex" Berlin - Karlovy Vary (CSSR) und als "Karola" Leipzig - Karlovy Vary (CSSR).

Bis 2003 waren alle 8 Triebzüge ausgemustert.
English: VT 18.16-175 005.Dresden Hauptbahnhof: New express trains were needed for the first international route Berlin - Prague of the Deutsche Reichsbahn after World War II. Old trains acquired from the Deutsche Bundesbahn were not enough. For example, the VT 18.16 was developed at VEB Waggonbau Görlitz from 1962 onwards, which was obvious because the former Waggon- und Maschinenbau-AG Görlitz (WUMAG) had already developed the famous "Flying Hamburger".

This railcar with up to four intermediate cars was used as the "Vindobona" Berlin - Prague (CSSR) - Vienna (Austria), from May 21, 1968 it was used as the "Berlinaren" on the Berlin - Malmö (Sweden) route with a ferry passage from Saßnitz to Trelleborg (Sweden). In the end this train ran as "Karlex" Berlin - Karlovy Vary (CSSR) and as "Karola" Leipzig - Karlovy Vary (CSSR).

By 2003, all 8 multiple units had been taken out of service.
