Im Jahr 1968 lieferte die Fabrik Josef Meyer, Rheinfelden die ersten sechs Selbstentladewagen des Typs Fad (Wagennummern 8701-8706).
Die Vierachser haben ein FassungsvermÃ¶gen von 22mÂ³ und sind fÃ¼r eine Ladung von 37t zugelassen.
Die ersten Wagen waren nur fÃ¼r einen SchÃ¼ttung nach auÃŸen vorgesehen, die Wagen der spÃ¤teren Auslieferungen konnten das SchÃ¼ttgut auch zwischen den Schienen entleeren.
Diese Selbstentladewagen kommen auch beim Gleisbau zum Einsatz.

Der Bestand an Fad-Wagen wurde 1971 um weitere sechs Wagen aufgestockt;
in den Jahren 1983-1993 kamen nochmals 22 Wagen in drei Lieferungen dazu.

Prototype:
The first six hoppers of this type (running numbers 8701 to 8706) were shipped by the manufacturer Josef Meyer, Rheinfelden, Switzerland, in 1968
These four-axle cars have a capacity of 22mÂ³ ( 29 cubic yards) and are approved for a load of 37 tons.
The first version of these hoppers could only be emptied to the outside of the track, later versions were designed to also allow emptying of the load between the rails.
Those hoppers are also used during the construction of new track.

In 1971 an additional six hoppers were purchased and then between 1983 and 1993 and additional 22 cars were added in three separate shipments (running numbers 8707-8712 and 8721-8742)

The hoppers are used as a gravel car during track construction and also to transport gravel and sand from the gravel pits to the various plants and factories.
