The SVT 137 155 was an articulated 3-car DMU designed by Franz Kruckenberg
and built 1934 to 1938 by Vereinigte Westdeutsche Waggonfabriken AG. This
train was very modern for its time, but never went into regular passenger
service as it had broken axles twice during test runs, and express DMU
services were cancelled with the beginning of the second world war. The
train stood for many years in a siding of a maintenance plant of the DR
and was eventually scrapped. All that remains is a powered bogie with
the diesel-hydraulic transmission and some fragments of the frame and
carbody of the end car. The Verkehrsmuseum Dresden has completed these parts
by reconstructing the original shape of the nose, which inspired both the
DB VT 11.5 and the DR VT 18.16. 2001-04-27.

Front of the SVT 137 155. You can see where the headlights have been.
Between the lights was a big air intake for the fans which can be seen
inside the carbody. The driver was seated quite high. Verkehrsmuseum

Side view of the SVT 137 155. A diesel engine of the same type as it
was used in the original train was installed inside the fragment.
The train had quite a long frontal overhang. Verkehrsmuseum

preserved. Behind the cab, originally a luggage compartment and a kitchen
was located. Verkehrsmuseum Dresden, 2001-04-27.
