The steam locomotives of the class P 3/5 N of the Bavarian State Railroad (K.Bay.Sts.B.) were passenger locomotives . Identical locomotives were also delivered to Bulgaria and Turkey .
A total of 36 locomotives of the class P 3/5 N were built by Maffei between 1905 and 1907 . The P 3/5 N emerged from the S 3/5 express train locomotive and, like this, had a four-cylinder compound drive . Compared to the S 3/5, the P 3/5 N had a smaller boiler with the same cylinder size and smaller drive wheels. The P 3/5 N was able to pull a 350 t train at 80 km / h on the plain.
Six locomotives were destroyed in the First World War; 17 more had to be given as reparations. The remaining 13 locomotives were taken over by the Deutsche Reichsbahn as class 38.0 . The S 3/6 had replaced the locomotives at that same time from the high quality train service.
After the positive experience with the P 3/5 H type from 1921, the later 38.4 series, between 1924 and 1925 all still existing P 3/5 N were converted from wet to superheated steam operation. The vehicles were nevertheless taken out of service between 1932 and 1938; the last locomotive used was the 38 003.
The vehicles were with a Tender respondents to type bay 2'2 'T 18.2 equipped.
Starting in 1905, Maffei also supplied a total of 12 identical locomotives to the Bulgarian State Railways (BDŽ), which had already received eight locomotives based on the prototype of the previous CV series . The locomotives were initially carried under the numbers 9 to 20 and from 1936 onwards were classified in the BDŽ series 08 . The locomotives were used by the BD® in front of high-quality trains up to and including the Simplon-Orient-Express .
In 1908, the Compagnie des Chemins de fer Orientaux (CFO), which operated the line from Istanbul to Svilengrad in the Ottoman Empire, purchased three more identically constructed locomotives from Maffei . The locomotives designated as Class IX and with the serial numbers 58 to 60 were also used by the CFO before the Orient Express . With the nationalization of the CFO, the locomotives came to the Turkish State Railways (TCDD) under the numbers 35.504–506 in 1937 .
