DR (KPEV) 0-10-0 No. 57.3297

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on May 2, 2022 @ 08:05:46
Although I have no records of the original KPEV number, which it may have been allocated prior to 1924 (KPEV No. 6011 Rbd Halle belonged to what later became DRG No. 57 3088); this locomotive entered DRG service as No. 33 2327, later, probably when the Reichsbahn re-designated the DRG the DRB from 1937 it became No. 57 3297 (equally I have no record of it ever being No. 57 297).

It was dug up in a strip mining pit in 2007 near Gilberton, PA. the engine was given to owner of Bear Ridge Machine company as a display for out front. the same location houses various pieces of Anthracite railroad history including P&RC&I Steeple cab electric locomotive from Locust Summit Breaker, and multiple other lokies that were dug up from pits which I am currently gathering info from the PA L&I boiler records and NB record to determine history of and will gladly forward over.

JZ (SHS) 2-8-0 No. 26.079 (7079)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on May 1, 2022 @ 05:05:41
I understand, though of course I and my source could be mistaken!, that this is actually Hohenzollern 4295/1922, as it appears build number 4294 is not extant. This was built for Serbian Railways as No. 7079 which in due course became JŽ No. 26 079. In 2007 it was stored in the Nis MIN Industrial area.
