Postcard: Skjoldenæsholm standard gauge with railcar 470 at Eilers Eg (2000)Due to a shortage of vehicles during and immediately after the Second World War, Copenhagen Trams built a series of 44 two-axle motor cars and 65 similar sidecars—the so-called "scrap cars"—at its main workshop between 1942 and 1947. Motor car no. 470 was built in 1945, and sidecar no 1065 in 1947. They were in operation until 1967 and 1968, respectively.By Henrik Boye, Sporvejshistorisk Selskab (SHS) - 2000.

Postcard: Skjoldenæsholm standard gauge with bilevel rail car 22 by The Tram Museum (2007)In the summer of 2007, the Tram Museum was able to put the restored two-story motor car KS no. 22 into use. The car was built in 1900 as an accumulator car, but was already converted to overhead line operation in 1902. In 1924, the top floor was removed, but the car continued as a traffic car until about 1950, after which it was converted to a rail grinding car. As such, it was used until 1972. Both of the car train's side cars, the closed KS no. 1253 and the open KS no. 389, were built by Scandia in 1909.By Henrik Boye, Sporvejshistorisk Selskab (SHS) - 2007.
