A3 L92.2 579 / Berlin Dahlem (DE)
Description 📄:
The underground type A3 L92.2 number 579 is running on the U3 line, which connects the south-western suburbs of the capital with the eastern part of the centre. The U3 line, 19.7 km long and with 24 stations, has as its terminus Krumme Lanke in the west and Warschauer Strasse in the east. The U3 line has the special feature of being mainly outside, with the exception of the section between the Podbielskialle stop and Gleisdreiek. The outdoor part, in the city centre, runs on elevated bridges along the streets of the Friedrichshein and Kreuzberg districts. The other, open-air part runs through the districts of Dahlem and Zehlenodorf at a lower level than the street, past the Freie Universität.
The Berlin underground is divided into two, one with a small profile (Kleinprofil) and the other with a large profile (Grossprofil). The lines U1, U2, U3 and U4 are small profile, the remaining U5, U6, U7, U8 and U9 large profile. Both systems have the same normal gauge of 1435 mm, the main difference being in the profile size. In addition, both profiles are powered by a third side rail at 750 V DC; the difference, however, lies in the way the current is transmitted from the third rail to the train. In fact, in the small profile the train slider makes contact with the upper part of the rail, while in the large profile the contact is made in the lower part of the third rail. The third rail is the positive pole in the small profile, while in the large profile it is the negative pole. The type A3 L92 underground railway, was built to replace the type Gl, between 1993 and 1995 by ABB Henschel, AEG, O&K, Siemens and WU.
