ET7 was supplied in 1907 to the Bavarian State Railway bayrischen 
Streckenabschnitt Hangender Stein- Berchtesgaden (kBaySTsB)
by vereinigten Maschinenfabriken Augsburg-Nürnberg. 
Numbered MBC 3, it was for use on the original tramway 
south from Salzburg to Berchtesgaden, being sold to the SETG in 1954 
having been in store for some years after the southern line closed. 
Used as a works car, it became increasingly decrepit, 
but was restored in 1963. Restored to original lined condition in 2000.
 
The coach was originally KbayStB BCL508, built by MAN in 1907 
for the German section of the original southern route. 
In turn it became SETG C162 and now SVB B102. 
Restored to original lined-out condition in 2001 
and used on the Mariazell Tramway, 
returning to the SVB in 2003.
