description

Bavarian B VI

The B VI was slightly larger than its predecessor. The first series of 57 vehicles had a boiler pressure of 8 bar. In the second series this was increased to 10 bar. The last two copies have passed into the possession of the Reichsbahn . The redesignation according to the new numbering plan to operating numbers 34 7461 and 7462 in 1923 was short-lived, as the machines were retired in the same year. They were equipped with bay 3 T 9 and bay 3 T 9.6 tenders .
