The EWA IIc series was a tank locomotive series operated by the Vienna-Aspang Railway (EWA). Originally referred to as the TLs series, it had the axle formula Bn2t and was built by the Krauss locomotive factory in Munich in 1882.
In the new designation scheme , the locomotives were classified as Series IIc with the numbers 21 and 22 . Locomotive 21 was already parked in 1921 and came to the Felten & Guilleaume cable factory in Diemlach near Kapfenberg in 1937 , from where it came into the holdings of the Austrian Railway Museum in 1977 and the Technical Museum Vienna in 1980 . The location in 2006 was Karlsplatz in Vienna, where the locomotive, after a restoration, pointed to the special exhibition “Great Railway Stations” in the Historical Museum of the City of Vienna (“Wien Museum”). This restoration only included a thorough derusting and surface treatment, the locomotive is not operational. After that, the locomotive was set up in the park east of the Technical Museum in Vienna on Winckelmannstrasse until 2009 . In 2010 it was brought to the Schwechat Railway Museum . Locomotive 22 came to the Wels leather factory in 1921 , later Welser Industriebahn , and in 1952 to the Grazer Schleppbahn .
