For the record:
The X 3700 (Z105) series railcars make up a series of 20 models, formerly put into service by the SNCF company between 1949/1950 and 1973/197. This series was created by Die Dietrich at its Reichshoffen factory. They were powered by 2 Saurer BXDS engines developing 160 bhp (118 kW) at 1,500 rpm and a top speed of 120 km/h. Once in service, these railcars were sometimes paired with a railcar from the same series or an X 4300. During their career, the X 3700s benefited from additional improvements, to optimise driver and passenger comfort, facilitate maintenance and improve handling on the tracks.
The X 3700s were also equipped with a mechanical gearbox with 4 synchronised gears.
