TCDD: These were the usual cars on the local train services to Çigli and Bornova. Occasionally however, also other cars with doors at both ends would be added to the trains (at rush hours for example). Before they were painted in an 'army-green' like colour; in 1977 however, they suddenly showed up with a new green colour and a (more) fresh-looking red line.

Those coaches are used in commuter and regional lines. The interior is similar to TVS2000, it lacks some of the facilities, such as air conditioning, pneumatic doors. And also the bogie is different, this car has an old type bogie with one stage steel springs, and not very comfortable. Photo by Gökçe Aydın (elbe80@yahoo.com)
