Brummer Class Cruiser
The ''Brummer'' class consisted of two light mine-laying cruisers built for the Imperial German Navy in World War I: and . When the war broke out, the Germans had only two older mine-laying cruisers. Although most German cruisers were fitted for mine-laying, a need for fast specialized ships existed. The Imperial Russian Navy had ordered sets of steam turbines for the first two ships of the s from the AG Vulcan shipyard in Stettin. This machinery was confiscated on the outbreak of war and used for these ships. Both vessels were built by AG Vulcan. The two ships laid a series of minefields during their career, though their most significant success came in October 1917, when they attacked a British convoy to Norway. They sank two escorting destroyers and nine of the twelve merchant ships from the convoy. They escaped back to Germany without damage. The two ships were interned at Scapa Flow after the end of the war, and were subsequently scuttled by their crews on 21 June 1919. ...

''Brummer'' was also used to test high pressure steam turbine systems designed for the German destroyers. She took part in the invasion of Poland, laying mines off the Polish coast. In January 1940 she was used as a commerce raider in the Baltic Sea and later took part in the invasion of Norway; as a command ship of a transport squadron. On 14 April she was torpedoed by the British submarine off Jutland, losing the complete bow section. Design In the mid-1930s two artillery training ships were built to drill the gunnery personal of the Kriegsmarine. Although ''Brummer'' was primarily designed for anti-aircraft gunnery training, she was also fitted for mine laying, her intended primary duty during wartime.

She served in the Royal Norwegian Navy until captured by the Germans in 1940. The Germans renamed her first ''Albatros II'', and a few days later ''Brummer''. She was wrecked in a British bombing raid in northern Germany in April 1945.

Rote Brummer
The Uerdingen railbus (German: ''Uerdinger Schienenbus'') is the common term for the multiple units which were developed by the German firm of Waggonfabrik Uerdingen for the Deutsche Bundesbahn and private railways after the Second World War. These vehicles were diesel-powered, twin-axle railbuses of light construction. The diesel motors were built into the chassis underneath the vehicle. The VT 95 (later DB Class 795) and VT 98 (later DB Class 798) of the former Deutsche Bundesbahn in particular, are associated with this concept. These vehicles were employed in passenger train duties on branch lines where steam or diesel train operations were less profitable. Including the units built under licence, a total of 1,492 power cars were built from 1950 to 1971; and the total number of units, including trailer and driving cars, was 3,306. The majority of these vehicles were built by the Waggonfabrik Uerdingen. However, due to the large numbers ordered, vehicle ...
