THE NEW 725/726 TRACK RECORDING RAILCAR

The new two-unit 725/726 track-recording railcar was developed from the standard 701 tower wagon rebuilt as a 726 recorder unit together with a converted 798 rail bus serving as traction unit and accommodation car. The DB now has five such track-recording units, which are stationed at Augsburg, Hanau, Hanover, Nurnberg and Opladen. It is hoped at some later date to publish an article describing the entire recording equipment.
