The DR used the power car SVT 137 902a to built a new trainsets. This power car was the only part of a trainset SVT "Berlin" which was in the DDR. They constructed a new trainset, because there was need for comfortable and cheap passengers coaches and trainsets in the DDR after the war. The power car could be used entirly except for the electric driving motors. The DR used coaches which were from a electric trainsets of the Dutch railways, to built the middle coaches for the trainsets. These coaches were found somewhere in the DDR and were transported to Raw Wittenberge. These coaches, with the numbers 391788, 391789 and 391790 could be coupled with the VTa. The old arrangement of the SVT "Berlin" VMb, VMc, and VSd remained the same. The power of the electric motors of the Dutch coaches was only 154 kW, that's why the VMc was equiped with two motors. The top speed of this trainset was 140 km/h.
