The use of mixed coal is due to the lack of coal, which had to be imported partly from the rest of the Reich before the war. As a result of the measures taken by the Reichsstelle for coal, the necessary import volumes are no longer available to the same extent as in previous years. In spite of the contradictions, the BMB must be satisfied with a reduction in the mixing ratio and use a reduction of lignite and unsorted coal (coal) which causes an even stronger spark flight. In the area of the former Czechoslovak state railways, the fires caused by spark flight in trains are still numerous. According to the accompanying overview, 182 fires in trains in 1937, l2o fires along the lines, 1938 177 " " " 216 11 11 11 I1 1939 56 " 1"1 "1 30 11 " 11 11 1940 121 11 I 1 11 115 11 11 11, 11 11 occurred.
