Abstract
A controlled-route vehicle, in particular a train, includes at least one air passage disposed in a wall of the controlled-route vehicle. The air passage has an inlet opening, disposed in an outer side of the wall, for letting air into the air passage, an outlet opening, disposed in an inner side of the wall, through which the air can be let out into an interior of the controlled-route vehicle, and a section which tapers in the direction of the outlet opening and is formed by an inner wall side of the wall. As a result, improved transport of the air into the interior of the controlled-route vehicle can be achieved in a structurally simple and inexpensive manner.
