Class C III (Ostbahn) und D IV (Ostbahn) locomotives were included in DRG's preliminary steam locomotive renumbering plan of 1923 under the numbers 53 7834–53 7868 and 88 7021–88 7026, but they did not appear in the final numbering plan.
The last locomotives (18 622 and 18 630) were taken out of service in 1965 in Lindau and scrapped in 1966. By contrast number 18 612 is preserved in the German Steam Locomotive Museum (Deutsches Dampflokomotiv-Museum) where it can be viewed. The unmodified S 3/6 engines were all withdrawn by 1962, apart from 18 505.
The engines achieved a speed of 33 km/h on a line with an incline of 1:200. The first engine was retired in 1871 and scrapped. Five examples were rebuilt into B I class 2-4-0 locomotives, four were rebuilt into C I class 0-6-0 locomotives, and four were sold. The last one was scrapped in 1874.
For many enthusiasts this is the most beautiful German steam locomotive and its popularity is testified by the numerous models produced in recent years by manufacturers such as Roco, Märklin and Trix. In 1914 the first units of the most powerful Bavarian steam locomotive, the Class Gt 2x4/4 Mallet tank engine (later DRG Class 96.0) entered ...
The Bavarian B V (Bayerische B V) steam engines were early German 2-4-0 locomotives of the Royal Bavarian State Railways (Königlich Bayerische Staats-Eisenbahnen). They were the first locomotives produced in Bavaria in large numbers — 101 in all. The first series of 14 locomotives was similar in many respects to the Class A V.
The Bavarian Ludwig Railway (Bayerische Ludwigseisenbahn or Ludwigsbahn) was the first steam-hauled railway opened in Germany. The Königlich privilegierte Ludwigs-Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft ("Royal Privileged Ludwig Railway Company", later called the Ludwigs-Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft ) received a concession to build a railway from Nuremberg to Fürth ...
Bavarian B IIIs were steam locomotives of the Royal Bavarian State Railways (Königlich Bayerische Staatsbahn). Eight examples were delivered by Maffei in 1852; the remainder came from Hartmann . The machines by Hartmann had great similarity to those of the Class A IV , which were manufactured at the same time.
The Class E I locomotives built for the Royal Bavarian State Railways by the Baldwin were goods train steam locomotives imported from the United States for testing purposes. The two machines were the first in Germany to have a bar frame , which had been standard in the USA virtually from the beginning and which had been developed from the ...
