TCDD MT5200 was a series of diesel multiple units operated by the Turkish State Railways. On October 25, 1940, an order for six two-car diesel multiple units was placed with MAN. Because of World War II only the two first units were delivered, the remaining being delivered to Slovak Railways (3) and Deutsche Bundesbahn (1). In 1954 MAN delivered an additional two centre cars, to allow conversion to three-car units.
