(storage space in a station, not to be coupled to trains).

This is is one of the infamous "weed trains", consisting of a
crew car (rebuilt from a 3-axle rebuilt DB car), an equipment
car, a spray car and four water cars. As the chemicals
contaminated the drinking water, these trains were retired,
and the DBAG is still looking for an effective and environmentally
friendly way of eliminating weed in the tracks.

A Zagro shunting device seen at the RIM
(Rheinisches Industriebahn-Museum Köln-Nippes) on 12 October 2003. It is a
very cheap possibility to shunt freight cars if you already have a forklift (as
most companies which handle significant amount of materials do). The forklift
transports the device to the track, sets it onto the rails and drives onto the
device. A gear inside tranmits the driving forces from the forklift's wheels to
the rail wheels.
