history

Front view in the photograph painting

Simultaneously with the plans for the twin series  214 , the design for a triple locomotive was created in the Wiener Neustädter Lokomotivfabrik . In order to be able to compare the two designs, it was decided to produce a prototype each. The 114.01 was built in the Wiener Neustädter Lokomotivfabrik and was delivered in 1929.

In general, the advantage of triple machines is the lower torque and better balance of the rotating masses, which means less wear. The disadvantage is higher fuel consumption due to the triple vapor path. In comparison to the 214.01, coal consumption was 9% higher with the 114.01. The poorer accessibility of the internal engine and the associated poorer maintainability, together with the better performance of the 214.01 in comparison drives, meant that the 214s went into series production. The 114.01 remained in use as a single piece at the BBÖ . A visible difference to the 214s are visible parts of the unusual Marshall valve control system with rotating camshaft.

The Deutsche Reichsbahn redrawn it as 12 101 in 1938 .

The 114.01 was used in the schedule of the 214 and was allowed to. a. run the first Arlberg-Orient-Express after the Second World War . On June 5, 1936, there was a derailment at Asten station, which left two dead and numerous injured. In 1948, due to the prevailing coal shortage, it was converted to oil firing. On August 6, 1949, the machine's central cylinder broke. At this point in time, intensive work was being carried out on the electrification of the Western Railway to Vienna. The damage to the 114.01 was therefore no longer repaired. In 1953 the locomotive was dismantled.
