The nickname comes from skt (Stamkot, a rare family name)
The Avatar pictures a lightweight railcar, built in large numbers in Wismar, Germany in the Thirties.
For each direction this one has Ford-BB engines. This particular one came from a small private railroad in Germany, the Delmenhorst-Harpstedter Eisenbahn, and was saved by my dad in the Sixties. Nowadays she is being restored at a Museum Railway situated in the Eastern part of the Netherlands, the "Museum Buurtspoorweg", which was founded by my dad and his friends during the Sixties,
