As JDZ 05 is called (from 1954 JŽ 05, originally JDZ 389) an express train - Train Locomotive of the Yugoslav State Railways Jugoslovenske državne železnice (JDZ) with the wheel arrangement 2'C1 '. It was developed together with the JDŽ 06 and JDŽ 30 series from 1929 by the Berlin locomotive manufacturers Borsig and Berliner Maschinenbau-Actien-Gesellschaft formerly L. Schwartzkopff . While Borsig built the series 06 and 30 locomotives, Schwartzkopff took over the construction of the Pacific series 05. All three series were based on the development principles of the standard steam locomotives of the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft .

prehistory

The railways of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (SHS), established after the First World War , had taken over a very heterogeneous fleet of vehicles from the railways of the predecessor states. Since large parts of the country were still hardly accessible to traffic, a comprehensive expansion of the rail network was planned. For this and to replace old Austrian, Hungarian and Serbian locomotives, the SHS planned an extensive new construction program. They were based on the standard steam locomotives built by the Deutsche Reichsbahn since 1926.

In 1929, the two Berlin locomotive companies, Borsig and Schwartzkopff, were awarded the contract to develop and build three series of steam locomotives, which should be based on the DR building principles:

  • A 2'C1 'locomotive for express trains (class 05)
  • A 1'D1 'locomotive for heavy passenger and express freight trains (series 06)
  • A 1'E locomotive for heavy freight trains (series 30)

All three series had a large number of identical components. While both companies used a joint working group for the development, they divided the construction. Schwartzkopff took over the express locomotive, Borsig the other two series.

history

The class 05 was supposed to operate mainly in the flatlands and to carry the heavy express trains on the routes in the Pannonian Plain . The specification for the express locomotive was a maximum speed of 100 km / h. On a 1% gradient, it should be able to move trains up to 500 t at 50 km / h and develop 6500 kg of pulling force on the tender hook. Further specifications for all locomotives were 18 t axle load and the use of Yugoslavian, comparatively low-heating hard coal . All three series received the same boiler design and identical tenders.

In 1930 Schwartzkopff delivered a total of 40 units of the 05 series to JDŽ with the serial numbers 9607 to 9646. Initially, the locomotives were classified as class 389 in the old numbering scheme until they were referred to as 05 from 1933. In accordance with the tasks assigned to them, they mainly took on the heavy express trains between Zagreb and Belgrade . Here they also carried the Simplon-Orient-Express, among other things .

After the Wehrmacht had conquered and occupied Yugoslavia in the Balkans campaign , the locomotives of the JDŽ were distributed to the newly founded vassal states . Croatia and Serbia each received 20 locomotives from the Class 05 Pacifics . In 1945 there were four locomotives in Austria and one, the 05 030, in Bayreuth . While the locomotives that remained in Austria were returned to Yugoslavia until 1947, 05 030 remained in Germany and was scrapped.

After the war, the Yugoslavian Railways, abbreviated as JŽ from 1954, again hauled their most important trains with the 05, including the Simplon-Orient-Express again. From around 1960, however, they were only to be found east of Belgrade after the main line from Zagreb to Belgrade was first switched to diesel and later to electric traction. The use of the locomotives ended in the early 1970s.

Only one locomotive is preserved, the 05 025, which is a memorial in Niš .
