The OPW (United Freight Car Fleet) was established on 1 July 1964 and united the railways of Bulgaria, Hungary, the GDR, Poland, Romania, the USSR and Czechoslovakia. The wagons that were part of the OPW met certain technical requirements: they were built after 1950, had a modern welded structure, roller bearings and were suitable for speeds up to 100 km/h. They remained the property of the railway administration that provided them and were used primarily for international traffic between the member states. Scheduled inspections of the wagons were carried out by the owner at his own expense.
