History
First SJ ordered a small series of narrow-track vehicles from Märstaverken that were made in 1949 as YCo4p and YCo4t in service. After good experiences also standard gauge cars were built. The series consisted of several diesel and electric vehicles and various types of control and sidecar.
Upon completion of the construction work SJ overtook offers from different manufacturers for the construction, again including Hilding Carlsson. However, the vehicles of the Y6 - generation were built then by ASJ, Hägglund & Söner, Kalmar Verkstad and Märstaverken ( Eksjöverken ). In 1950, the first 40 standard gauge railcars and 35 control and sidecar at Hägglund & Söner were ordered in Örnsköldsvik.
The first railcars were in 1953 with the series designation YCo6 (later Y6) delivered ground - Haparanda for the route. To compile longer trains, the rail cars were equipped with walkways. This allowed up to eight rail cars to be driven in one unit. They got the characteristic color with black frame, orange base, yellow top and gray roof.
The vehicles took over, especially on the branch lines from the late 1950s, almost the entire passenger until they were replaced in the 1980s by the new railcar Y1. There was also an electric version of the railcar, which was combined with the diesel trains, the trains could be used on local routes as well as on long-distance routes. Especially for use on long-haul routes, the vehicles were partially equipped with comfortable seats, they were even used on the complete path of the Inland Railway. After leaving the passengers in the 1990s, however, the history of the vehicles was not over. Many were at Banavdelningen - later Banverket - passed to continue to be used as a web service truck: as auditors vehicles, trains staff, for tool transport and as a camp or station wagon they found further use. In recent years, however, these have been replaced by modern vehicles.
With a total of 373 DMUs, EMUs and 30 321 control and the sidecar Y6 - generation was the largest Swedish serial procurement of rolling stock for passenger transport in Sweden. In addition, Hilding Carlsson delivered a series of narrow gauge rail cars of similar design, the YP.
In addition to the SJ procured private Säröbanan ( Gothenburg Särö Järnväg ( GSJ ) ) in 1954, five railcars and three followers of Y6 - type in blue and beige yellow. The trains were deployed throughout the country, were cheap in operation and delayed the setting of the passenger traffic on many routes.
DMUs
Y6
The first variant of the motor coach series was the Y6. Deliveries were made 1953-1957 and included 251 wagons. Since the time of first deliveries in Sweden still existed the third class, the vehicles were called YCo6. Starting in 1956, the series designation was then YBo6 and down the deliveries in 1970 was named the series Y6. The Y6 has 53 seats simpler design, five seats are in each row in the array 3 2 available. The cars were built by Hagglunds, ASJ in Linköping and Kalmar Verkstad ( 20 Nos. 852-871 ). The last car of this model was taken from the 1983 Schedule power. Many vehicles have been converted to rail service vehicles. 26 railcars were sold to different Danish private railways.
From the series Y6 are obtained: at Svenska Motorvagnsklubben the vehicles 773, 859 and 1116, the Museum Association of Östra Skåne Järnvägar No. 1062, at Inlandsbanan AB 1130, the Sveriges Järnvägsmuseum No 1109, at the Nora Bergslags Veteran Jernväg NBVJ No. 1037th No. 1037 came from a Danish private train back is completely painted red and is called dansken, " the Dane ".
Y7
The Y6 Y7 followed, which was originally called YBo7. In 1970 he was given the series designation Y7. The Y7 series had only 47 seats with improved arrangement of the 2 2 per row. This version was a modification of the X16, which was built in this form and with which they had had good experiences. Between 1957 and 1960, the vehicles were built at ASJ in Linköping and at the Eksjöverken in Eksjö. Together with the seven from Y6 and Y8 converted vehicles 129 pieces were produced. The car Y7 1224 was tentatively painted in the same color, which later received the railcar series X9. From this series several railcars were converted into rail service vehicles.
Five railcars were sold as BM 89 at the NSB and a Danish at a private railway. In the SJ trains were used until 1989. Some features have been preserved, including Y7 1177 at Svenska Motorvagnsklubben in the NBVJ Nora in the Y7 1063, 1220 and 1242 and in the Inlandsbanan AB Y7 1086 and 1233rd
Y8
Mid -1960s, the demand for rolling stock for fast railcar traffic in central Sweden. Therefore, 29 pieces YBo6 were rebuilt to increase the comfort for the travelers of the SJ. This conversion took place between 1963 and 1965. In these terms the same type of seats was used as the X9. The number of seats was reduced from 53 to 36. The interior was redesigned, this concerned mainly the hat racks made of steel tube. The cab has been repainted instead of the previously used green to gray. First, the designation YBo8 was used for vehicles from 1970 then Y8. The trains were then used mainly on long journeys. Among other things, on the Norrlandsbanorna and on Inlandsbanan the rail buses were the most commonly used vehicle. In the early 80 's, the new Italian Y1 displaced increasingly Y8 of the routes in the north of Sweden. These were restationed at Kristianstad and Malmö. On the Blekinge Kustbana they replaced the classic rolling stock in the fast trains 298 and 299
Several vehicles have been preserved in museum railways. The Museiföreningen Östra Skåne Järnvägar mfÖSJ in Kristianstad has No. 1064, which was moved to its original state after his time as a railroad maintenance car again. The municipality has Karlskoga No 1076 adopted, Orsa Järnvägsförening No. 1124 NBVJ 1125 Svenska Motorvagnsklubben No 1131 and the club Dellenbanans Vänner No. 1132.

The compartments are divided by a folding partition, the former passenger compartment was equipped with a carpet. The series name was changed in 1970 in YS, but as early as 1972 all company cars were redrawn again in QGM. The new numbers were QGM 0037, 0038 and 0039th QGM 0037 was rebuilt in 1975 with a tower for work on the overhead line and received the designation QGZ - ya and the No. 985 0842nd QGM 0038 1994 PMV 0038 and early in the 2000s the Svenska Motorvagnsklubben passed, that established the former YS- execution again.
