The interior of a dome-car (ex AD4üm-62), built in 1962 for the Deutsche Bundesbahn (used in the TEE `Rheingold' between Switzerland and Amsterdam), now owned by the Swiss reisebüro mittelthurgau (used in excursion trains all over Europe). These cars have 22 seats in a raised glass dome, a bar at one end and two compartments at the other end. The post and luggage compartments under the dome are now used as storage room for the bar. The tables in the dome have been added by the RMT. There are five of these cars, they are the only American-style dome-cars in Europe. Photo by Tobias B. Köhler (unci@tigerden.com)
