Henschel-Type Bismarck is the name of three-axle steam locomotives that Henschel & Sohn had developed for private and works railways .
The design is based on the Prussian type T 3 locomotives . The Henschel-type Bismarck locomotives, however, are more powerful and technically advanced.
construction
These are three-axis wet steam - tank locomotives the wheel arrangement C . The locomotives have two cylinders that are in front of the first axle and act on the middle coupling axle . An external Heusinger control with flat slide is used as the control . Two Willigens type steam jet feed pumps are available for the feed water supply . The water supply is housed in a frame water tank under the boiler ; the coal boxes are to the left and right of the fire box in front of the driver's cab . There is a filler neck for the water tank in front of it.
The springs of the two front wheel sets are connected to balancing levers above the circuit.
Since this was a basic design, the structure of which allowed individual customer requests to a certain extent, and the company Henschel & Sohn offered this type of locomotive for several decades, the individual locomotives differed in various details and were accordingly always technically based on the current technical ones Standard adjusted.
So they initially corresponded relatively closely to the Prussian model. T3 (where the Heusinger control was used from the beginning), it deviated further and further over time. For example, additional water boxes were attached to the coal boxes in order to be able to increase the water supply from the original 4 to 6 cubic meters. The boiler designs used and their dimensions also varied depending on the year of construction. Technical innovations that emerged as the standard in locomotive construction were incorporated into the design. For example, the two- rail crosshead with two slideways still used in the first two locomotives (make no. 6676 and 6677) were converted to a single-rail crosshead (see, for example, make no.19248). The compressed air brake (later mostly Westinghouse or Knorr ) was initially not standard (only the throw lever brake was used in the driver's cab or a lever brake was installed), which meant that later machines were equipped with an air pump and the necessary braking system. Measured by the year of construction, each machine of this type partly reflected the standard of its respective time of origin, which did not lead to a uniform design as with other steam locomotive series. In 1948, Henschel standardized its range of types, whereby the name "Bismarck" was replaced as the type designation by "C 400". The adjustments and modernizations of the years were set as new principles for this type.
commitment
The number of Bismarck-type locomotives built is not exactly known, it is around 90. They were delivered to various German small and private railways, companies and mines . Here they worked in light to medium-heavy local and shunting traffic in freight and passenger traffic . Due to their unchanged operation compared to old locomotives such as the Prussian T3, with a simultaneous increase in performance and technical simplification (e.g. during maintenance), they were very popular there and known for their robustness. In 1949 a total of 16 of the locomotives from former small and private railways in the Soviet occupation zone came into the inventory of the Deutsche Reichsbahn .
On the one hand because of their comparatively low output with relatively high coal and water consumption, which came about on the one hand due to the design as a wet steam locomotive and the simple use of steam, on the other hand because of the advancement of dieselization and the shutdown of shunting and branch line traffic in the 1960s this time to increased scrapping of this locomotive type. Their individual design, which meant that little standardization of maintenance in relation to other series could be carried out, ensured - especially at the Deutsche Reichsbahn - for increased parking and decommissioning . Some locomotives of this type were and will be preserved for posterity by erecting them as memorials or by taking them over by railway associations that are still active today (see list).
Overview of construction and whereabouts
The first Bismarks locomotives were built in 1904, the last around the end of the 1930s. Locomotives that came into the inventory of the Deutsche Reichsbahn were assigned to the 89 series.
