T16482 - Local railcar BR 648.1 of the DB AG as "World Cup train" - winter sports region Sauerland The most successful sales hit of the Alstom LHB GmbH in Salzgitter is currently the LINT 41, whereby meanwhile four variants are internationally marketed under the label "Coradia LINT": The LINT 27 is a one-piece, four-axle railcar, while six-axle and two-piece LINT 41 comes along. Eight-axis, two-piece, but with longer car bodies, the LINT 54 is offered, which can be extended by adding another motorized center car to the LINT 81. The number behind the name indicates the approximate train length in meters. According to the criteria of modern vehicle construction, the construction of the LINT 41 is modular, so that adjustments can be made at any time according to customer requirements. The underframe uses welded, reinforced steel sections at the ends. The car bodies are made of welded steel lightweight construction as "torsion-resistant tubes" made of largely stainless steels. Under the vehicle head from screwed and glued GRP parts (glass fiber reinforced plastic) provides a reinforced steel construction for the necessary security. Around 70% of the vehicle's length is designed as a low-floor area on the LINT 41, with the floor height being 598 mm for the low-profile (LINT 41) and 780 mm for the tall version (LINT 41 / H). The two car bodies are based on the central Jakobs-Laufdrehgestell. The combined rubber-air suspension and additional vibration dampers ensure a smooth ride. The DB procured in 2000/01 first six copies of the LINT 41 / H as 648 001-006 for regional transport in Schleswig-Holstein. For operation on routes in the Sauerland and in the Siegen Three-Länder-Eck, the DB put into service until 2005 a total of 21 LINT 41 / H (648 101-121) and seven normal LINT 41 (648 201-207). In both types, holders for skis can be installed in the multipurpose room. On the occasion of the bobsleigh and skeleton world championships, which took place from February 23rd to March 8th, 2015 in Winterberg in the Hochsauerlandkreis, the winter sports theme 648 110 was presented to the public in January 2015. He was supposed to promote the "winter sports region Sauerland" as a "world championship train". With its design, the specially designed railcar stood out clearly from the otherwise red trains of the DB Regio NRW and served even after the World Cup as an attractive advertising medium for the "winter sports region Sauerland" located near the Ruhr area.
