From 1973 it was fully on the Harz system, later as No. 99 7234 which became, from late 1992/early 1993 DB as EDP No. 099 144-8, almost immediately then HSB with a former DR identity. HSB (DR) 2-10-2T No. 99.7233 (99 233) Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 7, 2022 @ 04:04:22 Although built as DR No. 99 233 for the Harz system, it originally worked, along with No. 99 232, until 1958 on the Gera-Pforten line, then in the Harz and later as No. 99 7233-2. It later became, at the end of 1992, DB with EDP No. 099 143-0 until in 1993 joining the HSB in a DR identity, It is usually based in a shed at the intermediary Bf of Ilfeld. HSB (DR) 2-10-2T No. 99.7232-4 (99 232) Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 7, 2022 @ 04:04:07 Delivered as No. DR 99 232 to the Harz system, but worked from 1956-1960 on the Gera-Pforten branch, then returned to the Harz in that identity, later No. 99 7232-4 and, from the end of 1992 as DB, with new EDP number 099 142-2 but became HSB in it’s DR identity later that year. HSB (DR) 2-10-2T No. 99.7231-6 (99 231) Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 7, 2022 @ 03:04:50 This was initially delivered to the shorty (18km) Eisfeld-Schönfeld Railway that connected with the Werra Railway at Eisfeld, later becoming part of the Harz system on DR as No. 99 731, later No. 99 7231-6. It was stopped for repairs/re-building in 1978 and when DB took over, was given the EDP number of 099 141-4, but now runs in it’s former DR identity for the HSB, who took over in 1993.

NCB 0-6-0ST No. 22 Posted by: Russell Newman on Apr 6, 2022 @ 06:04:27 No. 22 was one of the later built Austerity 0-6-0ST locomotives that were built for industrial use after the second world war. She was built at the Hunslet Engine Company works in Leeds in 1956 as Works No. 3846 for the National Coal Board for use at Graig Merthyr Colliery in South Wales. Where the locomotive spent all of its working life there until June 1978 when the colliery closed, but during its time there it worked between the Graig Merthyr Colliery and the exchange sidings on the the Swansea District line at Graig Merthyr Colliery Sidings. No. 22 remained at Graig Merthyr being stored in the locomotive shed until 1986 when was then moved to the Cefn Coed Colliery Museum at Crynant near Neath to be on static display outside their main gate there. In 1997 the locomotive was bought by Chris Theaker to become part of the locomotive fleet based at Appleby-Frodingham Railway Preservation Society at the former British Steel site at Scunthorpe in Lincolnshire. There it underwent restoration to return to steam which was completed in 2010. The locomotive is turned out in the identity as United Steel Company Limited No.22 and a crimson livery. The orginal No. 22 worked at Cottesmore Iron Ore in Rutland which part of the railway system is today the Rocks By Rail: The Living Ironstone Museum which No. 22 has visited. Since its return to steam No. 22 has visited the the Nene Valley Railway, the Embasy & Bolton Abbey Railway and the Great Central Railway. Its currently on hire to the Mid Norfolk Railway at in Dereham in Norfolk for the 2022 running season there. Mount Tamapais & Muir Woods Ry Heisler - 2 truck No. 9 Posted by: Erik on Apr 6, 2022 @ 04:04:49 @Matthew Gardner Until your last sentence the note maybe believable. With that it is fake... Safe rpm for steam lcomotive that size and era would be 320-360rpm. At 400rpm the danger of breaking moving parts grow. At 500rpm parts break for sure. Your 60mph equals 1120rpm with this Heisler...!!! Bullshit. DB (DR) 2-10-2T No. 099 757-7(99.794) Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 6, 2022 @ 04:04:44 Upon German unification, this later became DB EDP No. 099 757-7. DB (DR) 2-10-2T No. 099.756-9 (99.793) Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 6, 2022 @ 04:04:41 This is another file whose build number is slightly incorrect; I.e. it should be LKM 132034 NOT just 32034. It was delivered directly to DR as their No. 99 793, later 99 1793-1 that, after unification became DB No. 099 756-9. It has worked on several of the narrow gauge lines in Sachsen. DB (DR) 2-10-2T No. 099.755 (99.791) Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 6, 2022 @ 04:04:27 Another locomotive delivered by LKM as No. 132032/1955 (I.e. NOT just 32032) to DR as No. 99 791, later 99 1791-5, that became DB EDP No. 099 755-1, and which has been present on the Loßnitzbahn for several decades since 1993. DB (DR) 2-10-2T No. 099.752 (99.788) Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 6, 2022 @ 03:04:13 My previous note regarding Phil’s 2008 note should have read Radeburg, the northern extent of the line from Radebeul, not Radeberg which is another town to the east across the Berlin-bound autobahn! Apologies. DB (DR) 2-10-2T No. 099.753(99.1789) Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 6, 2022 @ 03:04:00 Delivered directly to DR as No. 99 789, later becoming 99 1789-9 and, upon German unification with DB as EDP No. 099 753-6, working on several Sachsen lines. DB (DR) 2-10-2T No. 099.752 (99.788) Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 6, 2022 @ 03:04:08 Another locomotive whose build number has been mis-quoted in the file. It is actually LKM No. 132029 (NOT just 32029) please see No. 132028 for relevant note! Also Phil’s note of 2008 presumably should read either Radebeul Ost to Radeberg, or visa-versa, the two extremities of the Loßnitzbahn,maybe just the computer messing things up again! Anyway, the locomotive was delivered to DR as No. 99;788, later 99 1788-1, then under DB administration EDP No. 099 752-8. It has worked for the Öchslebahn since 2001, and was still at Öchenhausen in 2012. DB (DR) 2-10-2T No. 099.751-0 (99.787) Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 6, 2022 @ 03:04:02 This locomotive was delivered from LKM as their No. 132028 (I.e. NOT just 32028) they appear to have changed their ‘system’ each year! to DR as No. 99 787, later 99 787-3, later with DB as EDP No. 99 751-0. It has worked for the SOEG and successors since 1994. DB (DR) 2-10-2T No. 099.748-6 (99.784) Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 5, 2022 @ 10:04:28 Originally DR No. 99 784, later 99 1784-0, then DB No. 099 748-6. At the beginning 1996 it was bought by the RüKB, where it remains. DB (DR) 2-10-2T No. 099.747-8 (99.783) Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 5, 2022 @ 10:04:11 Originally DR No. 99 783, later 99 1783-2 prior to becoming DB No. 099 747-8 working through to the end of 1989. After a break of a decade it worked on the RüKB until at least 2005, then was purchased privately by H Schöntag but was still at Putbus in 2012. DB (DR) 2-10-2T No. 099.746-0 (99.782) Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 5, 2022 @ 10:04:48 Originally No. 99 782, later No. 99 1782-4, then DB No. 099 746-0 (Not -2). It joined the RüKB in 1996.

Bau-Union, Berlin 0-4-0T No. 1 (44) 'Klaus' Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 5, 2022 @ 04:04:11 This locomotive initially went through intermediary Metalexport, Warszawa to Bau-Union, Berlin as No. 300-70-44; then the Trümmerbahn, Berlin followed by a brickworks in the then Karl-Marx-Stadt (Chemnitz), followed by work in Crimmitschau, north of Zwickau.

Huta Ostrowiec 0-4-0T No. Unknown Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 5, 2022 @ 03:04:16 Gauge is recorded as 760mm, with boiler No. 8333 Fabryka Tektury Tarnowka 0-4-0WT No. 4 Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 5, 2022 @ 03:04:58 The locomotive was originally sold through a Warszawa intermediary to the Paper Fabrik Works at Ptusza, Poland (just north of Pila in north-east part of the country) with boiler No. 8327 as was given running No. 4. Only in 1980 was it displayed outside Paper Factory Tektury, Tarnówka, nr Pila until 2003 when purchased privately the following year for preservation in nearby Bydgoscz. Since then it has been exported to Spain, initially for display outside Hotel Venta de Etxalar, to the West (inland) of Bilbao near the easterly shore of the Rio Deba, being here at least 2010-2013.

DR 2-10-0 No. 50.4073-8 Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Apr 5, 2022 @ 02:04:57 This locomotive, built well after WW2 was actually a freight parallel design to the DR Class 23.10 passenger build, of which there are far more survivors; this being the only one. It was delivered as No. 50 4073 and, upon computerisation became 50 4073-8, working through to 1978 - a ‘life’ history of less then eighteen years. From 1981-1986 it served as a Stationary boiler with Stärkefabrik Loitz and 1986-1992 with Agricultural Repair Work Demmin in the same role. It was then preserved by the BEM at Nördlingen and, in 1998, received additional attention at RAW Meiningen.
