From Wikipedia

The BVG Class 480 (German: BVG-Baureihe 480) is an electric multiple unit for the Berlin S-Bahn. It was originally meant to replace the aging S-Bahn rail cars in West Berlin, but after the reunification of the city, the remaining orders were cancelled and replaced by new orders for DBAG Class 481 cars in 1993. Following the withdrawal of the Class 485 in November 2023, the Class 480 are the oldest trains in service on the Berlin S-Bahn. The Class 480 is also known by rail enthusiasts as the "Toaster", partly due to the angular design, partly due to the similarly named model BR 480 toaster that was produced in the 1950s by one of the trains' manufacturers (Siemens), and partly in reference to a series of fires that plagued the fleet due to technical issues.
