Renfe Tren Automotora Fiat (TAF), class 595 from 1952

One of 50 dating from from 1952 - 1954 and now preserved. They were run as three car sets -- motor+trailer+motor -- and the motor cars were fitted with a 12 cylinder diesel engine giving a power output of 503 hp.

Interestingly the silver with green stripe livery was used in NZ for the Standard railcars from the late 1930s (see earler posts).
