Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Feb 21, 2022 @ 04:02:19
Would I not be correct in thinking that the origins of this locomotive prior to it’s service with ÖBB from 1945 is:- Südbahn (from delivery); BBÖ (from 1923 as No. 629.101 - another 85 class examples numbered 629.01-85 were supplied to the kkStB/BBÖ 1917-1927); and DR during WW2? This locomotive was NEVER kkStB as this was a separate company until formation of the Austrian State Railways in 1923, though I do appreciate that their subsequent numbering system is confusing!

Posted by: Russell Newman on Feb 20, 2022 @ 11:02:34
The construction on new build British Railways Standard Class 3MT 2-6-2T No. 82045 has also reached a milestone as at the end of 2021 the front and rear pony truck wheels were fitted to the locomotive making No. 82045 a 2-6-2T for real now. Work is still progressing with work focussing on the construction of the boiler and firebox in the boiler shop at Bridgnorth and the construction of the side tanks. It is hoped that the locomotive will be completed and steamed for the first time in 2023.

ÖBB (kkStB) 2-6-2T No. 175.817(29.22)

Posted by: Dale W Fickés on Feb 20, 2022 @ 09:02:40
As with another note for a Austrian locomotive, the builder must either be one of the two constituent companies, or another, that merged to form the CKD in 1927? As with the other, the late P Ransome-Wallis has this as the Erste Böhmische-Mährisch Machinefabrik (EBMM) which, according to records that I can source, only operated during WW2 ?
