The Deutsche Reichsbahn took over a number of log cars or swivelling bolster cars from the regional railways. They were all allocated to the "Regensburg" region. Since the next generation was only produced in insignificant quantities, the DRG had to continue to rely on the old swivelling bolster cars for a long time. There were detailed regulations which had to be adhered to when using log cars, which is why the log car pairs were only allowed to be coupled to the end of the train. The number of swivelling bolster car pairs was also limited depending on the route they took and the type of train.
