ÖBB (DRB) 2-10-0 No. 52.5795

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 10:04:34
The locomotive is indeed build Schichau (Elbing) 4092/1944 which was delivered to the DRB (successor to the DRG) near the end of WW2 as No. 52.5795. In 1945 it was handed over to the Austrian authorities who gave it to the emerging ÖBB in the same identity, ending it’s working days as a stationary boiler as No. 010.64 at Wien FJB depot until 1979. It later went to Straßhof and may now have been scrapped ?

DB (DRB, DR) 2-10-0 No. 52.8035 (52.5761)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 09:04:30
The locomotive was delivered to the DRB (successor to the DRG) during WW2 as No. 52 5761. It was with the SBZ Military Administration 1945-1949 and with the newly created DR from the latter year who, 1958-1962 fitted it with a more powerful boiler and re-numbered it 52 8035, later No. 52 8035-9. It was withdrawn in 1991 and by the time DB had taken over responsibility, the locomotive was stored at Bw Basdorf on behalf of B Falz. It later moved to Altes Lager (Jüterbog) followed by Falkenberg/Elster.

SZD (DRB) 2-10-0 No. TE-5731 (52.5731)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 09:04:33
The locomotive was delivered to the DRB (successor to DRG) as No. 52 5731 and sequestrated by the USSR in 1945 for work with the SŽD as their No. TE-5731. It was re-numbered as TE-5731 and last observed in the reserve at Zheleznonoroshny, Kaliningrad Oblast, Russia in 1993.

PKP (DRB) 2-10-0 No. Ty2-572 (52.5702)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 09:04:07
However, another source gives the serial number of the DRB locomotive as Schichau 3993/1943, which fits the identity sequence of others known to exist or have been exported to the BDŽ. Whilst it may bear the build plate off 3989 (which appears to be no longer extant) No. 52 5702 was reported to be stored at Mamonowo in 1993 ?

SZD (DRB) 2-10-0 No. TE-5694 (52.5694)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 09:04:52
This is Schichnau (Elbing) 3985/1943 which was delivered to the then DRB (as successor to DRG) as No. 52 5694. In 1945 it was sequestrated by the USSR for the SŽD who re-gauged it to 1524m. and gave it No. TE-5694. It has been displayed at the railway museum in St Petersburg since at least 1991.

SZD (DRB) 2-10-0 No. TE-5690 (52.5690)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 08:04:58
This is yet another locomotive delivered to the DRB (successor to DRG) as No. 52 5690 which was sequestrated by the USSR in 1945 for the SŽD who gave it number TE-5690. In 1993 it was stored in the reserve at Zeheleznodorshnyj, Kaliningrad Oblast, Russia.

SZD (DRB) 2-10-0 No. TE-5689 (52.5689)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 08:04:34
The locomotive was delivered to the original DRB (successor to the DRG) as No. 52 5689 and then sequestrated by the USSR in 1945 for the SŽD who gave it the identity TE-5689. It was noted in Brest, Belarus in 1996. The letters ‘CZD’ are believed superfluous to this file, presumably should read SŽD ?

SZD (DRB) 2-10-0 No. TE-0607 (52.607)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 08:04:16
This locomotive was originally ordered from Borsig, Berlin and destined to become their No, 15704, then to be be delivered as DRB (as successor to DRG) No. 52-607. However, due to circumstances beyond their control (probably Allied bombing) Schichnau completed the order and gave it their own build number, hence the apparent ‘oddity’. In 1945 it was sequestrated by the USSR for the SŽD and given the number TE-607, and was last seen at Krasvovka Reserve, Kaliningrad Oblast, Russia, in 1993.

DR (DRB) 2-10-0 No. 52.5679-7 (52.5679)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 08:04:40
Originally delivered to the DRB (successor to DRG) during WW2 as No. 52 5679, the locomotive spent 1945-1949 under SBZ Military Adminstration before joining DR on this latter date, eventually becoming No. 52 5679-7 just prior to the DR merger with DB. It was withdrawn from service in 1989 and placed on display adjacent to the Bahnhofstrasse (Bf) and main depot (Bw) in Falkenberg/Elster.

DR (DRB) 2-10-0 No. 52.8156-3 (52.5678)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 08:04:08
The locomotive was delivered to the DRB (successor to DRG) as No. 52 5678 and retained that identity with the SBZ Military Administration 1945 -1949 and with the fledgling DR from that latter date. Between 1958-1962 it was rebuilt with a more powerful boiler, emerging as No. 52 8156, later No. 52 8156-3. Rolling DR merger with the DB it was sold, in 1994, privately for the Staßfurt railway museum but in 1998, was stored in both Weferlingen and Oebisfelde. In 2005 it was purchased by Fred Prinsen GmbH of Kloster Lehnin-Reckhahn and placed on display in Belzig.

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 04:04:58
Another locomotive delivered to the original DRB (successor to the DRG) during WW2 as No. 52 5659, and with the SBZ Military Administration 1945 -1949; DR from the latter date. It was re-built, probably at either Raw Babelsberg or Stendal 1958-1962 and emerged as No. 52 8079, later to become No. 52 8079-7. It became the property of the merged DB in 1991/2 and in 1993 was stored at Bw Berlin-Schöneweide, prior to being preserved privately by a buyer in Celle. For six years from 1995 it was at Stuttgart- Neuoffingen, then from 2002 in at VE Adorf, where it was last recorded in 2003.

BDZ (DRB) 2-10-0 No. 15.131 (52.5658)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 03:04:07
The locomotive was actually delivered to the original DRB (as successor to the DRG) and after a spell with the SBZ Military Administration in 1945, joined the fledgling DR. It was one of ten locomotives, initially hired in 1959, then purchased in 1961 by the BDŽ from DR. A total of 275 members of this class eventually ended up in Bulgaria; 85 as Soviet war booty; 20 each purchased from both DR and CSD in 1956; and the final 140, previously sequestrated (along with the CSD batch) from Germany in 1945, from the SŽD 1961-1964. BDŽ re-numbered it 15.131. It was observed personally at Asenovo reserve in 2004.

PKP (DRB) 2-10-0 No. Ty2-559 (52.5657)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 02:04:00
Apparently this locomotive, from another source, is actually Schichnau No. 3935/1943 though it probably includes elements from several sources! The current build number of 3887 no longer exists, maybe just it’s plates ?

SZD (DRB) 2-10-0 No. TE-5620 (52.5620)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 25, 2022 @ 02:04:26

Another locomotive delivered to the DRB (as successor to the DRG) as No. 52 5610 that was sequestrated by the Soviets in 1945 for the SŽD as No. TE-5610. Whilst it may have worked in the Ukraine in USSR days, it would always have been a SŽD locomotive, only stored in reserves and not worked whilst in western Ukraine for the UŽ.

UZ (DRB, SZD) 2-10-0 No. TE-5557 (52.5557)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 24, 2022 @ 05:04:43
Originally delivered to the DRB (successor to the DRG) during WW2 as No. 52 5557 it was sequestrated by the USSR, presumably re-gauged and used by the SŽD as No. TE-5557. In 1994 it was stored in Lviv Oblast, May well have run in Ukraine but latterly had only a Soviet identity, not even as a later Class 1042 ?

UZ (DRB, SZD) 2-10-0 No. TE-5548(52.5548)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 24, 2022 @ 05:04:02
The locomotive was delivered during WW2 to the DRB (as successor to the DRG) as No. 52 5548 and was sequestrated, inn1945, by the USSR for use by their SŽD as No. the TE-5548. Last noted 1994 in Lviv Oblast. Whilst it ended up in Ukraine (now a separate country) whilst still part if the Soviet Union, it probably always ran for SŽD rather than Ukraine Railways?

Maybe CZD is a mistype in this instance for SŽD?, though it could have worked in Czech/Slovakia ? However, it was last noted stored in Brest, Belarus in 1996.

The Isle of Man Railway’s Beyer Peacock & Co. built 2-4-0T No. 8 "Fenella" is to make a rare visit to the UK mainland as No. 8 is visiting the Welshpool & Llanfair Light Railway as their 4th and final visiting locomotive to be on display for their Beyer Bash Gala from the 20th to 22nd of May 2022. The visit of No. 8 "Fenella" is rare for an Isle of Man resident locomotive to be seen publicly in the UK and one that will draw enthusiasts from around Britain to see the locomotive at the event at Welshpool. No. 8 is not operatinal having been taken out of service in 2020 and is currently awaiting overhaul and the visit to the Welshpool & Llanfair Light Railway will be its last time to be seen on public display before her overhaul starts which will be soon.
