This acquisition is an attempt which cannot yet be foreseen.The use of the business travel compartments has been restricted only to a very narrow circle of leading personalities, which the Reichsverkehrswinisterium itself has defined. In recognition of the special circumstances in the Protectorate, the Reichsverkehrsministerium has agreed that a somewhat larger group of people will be entitled here to make use of the services provided within the Protectorates. The identity cards in force herein differ considerably according to size, form ukd characteristic colour from the identity card valid for the entire Reichsgebiet. For the persons who receive an identity card for the Protectorate valid for, there is no entitlement to the identity document valid for all Reichsbebiet - even after transfer to the limited Reichgebiete. The number of trains in which the business travel compartments are set up and the number of compartments were also fixed by the Reichsverkehrsministerium. Applications for the increase of trains or compartments have been made - unobstructed. The holders of the special passes do not have the right to use the compartment alone. In the case of a vehicle category, they are also entitled to seats in the business travel compartments and are equivalent to the holders of the special cards.
