Electric Railcar ET 65
Between 1961 and 1963, all the 23 railcars were transferred to the Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatt depot and completely reworked. The most striking modification was the complete replacement of the front section and the rubber corridor connections between the carriages. Post 1968, after the modernisation, the ET 65 railcar with the road number 465 provided a reliable daily service until it was replaced by the S-Bahn suburban rail service in 1977. Initially, the modernised ET 65s had the same dark red paintwork, though advertising was added to the outside from the end of the nineteen sixties onwards. One of the companies that the ET 65 advertised from that time on was “Jägermeister”.
