In late 1988, both cars were scrapped. While Class EI was designed and built, BVG already planned an improved Class EII as a lightweight construction based on the experiences with the prototypes and with BVG Class D. Waggonbau Ammendorf was tasked with the design on 18 February 1959.
What happened to the EIII/4 BVB train?
As the EIII / 4 had already been decided at this time, the vehicle was no longer built. In 1992, when the BVB was re-unified with the BVG (West) to form BVG, the trains were progressively renumbered from 10x and 15x series, into the 18xx and 19xx.
