The Integral is a diesel multiple unit (DMU) train type operated by Bayerische Oberlandbahn on regional services between Munich, Bayrischzell, Lenggries and Tegernsee. They were built by the now defunct Jenbacher Werke.[1]

Formation

Interior view

Each Integral unit consists of five sections, formed as follows.[2] The two "FGZ" sections are suspended by the end- and intermediate cars.[2]

Technical specifications

The trains are powered by diesel-hydraulic motors.[2] One end car has all wheelsets powered, the other end car has only one powered wheelset. All six wheelsets use active radial steering.[2] The trains are able to run in multiple unit formation.[3]

History

The trains entered service in November 1998.[3] Following problems and malfunctions, the fleet was returned to its manufacturer in Jenbach, and was overhauled, which increased their reliability.[4]

One unit was used at the Test- and Validationcenter Wegberg-Wildenrath for testing of an anti-collision system by the Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR).[5]

The Integral trains are scheduled to be replaced by new LINT units from May 2020.[6] These LINT 54 units will be similar to those used by Bayerische Regiobahn between Munich and Füssen, as well as between Augsburg and Landsberg am Lech since December 2018.[1]
