what is it?
The 1Mw is a type of bidirectional, four-axle narrow-gauge diesel railcar produced by Konstal between 1960 and 1966. A total of four units were built, designed for operation on tracks with a gauge of 750 mm (29.5 in). On the Polish State Railways, these railcars were initially designated Mx-201 to 204 under the narrow-gauge rolling stock classification, later renumbered to MBxd1-201 to 204.
