For decades, the n-coaches of the Deutsche Bundesbahn were known as Silberlinge. With over 5.000 units, this family of carriages became the dominant type of DB commuter coaches from the 1960s onwards. Multiple units and double-deck coaches gradually replaced them, but this did not happen until the 1990s.
