The steam locomotive k.uk FB 6 was a narrow gauge - Train Locomotive of the imperial army railways of Austria .

This small locomotive with 700 mm gauge was manufactured by the Budapest machine works in 1902. The first axle was a Klien-Lindner hollow axle . The flanges of the wheels of the first and fourth axles were on the inside, those of the second and third axles on the outside.

Since the machine was delivered relatively late, it could not be sufficiently tested by the Heeresfeldbahnen before the decision regarding series production should be made. In terms of performance, it was the most powerful of the test locomotives (the electric locomotive No. 5 was ordered from Ganz , but apparently not delivered), but since the flanges attached to the outside ran onto switch hearts and had to be repaired, there was no reorder.

The vehicle came to the Beszterce Forest Railway after 1918 .
