The steam locomotive series SB 32a was a freight train - steam locomotive series of the Austrian Southern Railway (SB), whose locomotives were originally procured for the Vienna-Pottendorfer Bahn (WPB). Since the Südbahn operated on the WPB, they were not given a WPB name.

The machines formed the universal locomotives of the WPB. In the 1890s she moved the Südbahn to Marburg , later to Graz (for the Graz-Köflacher Railway ) and Villach . After the nationalization of the Südbahn lines on Austrian territory in 1923 , all eleven locomotives came to the BBÖ as 52,500 , which they retired by 1932 .
