The steam locomotive series KRB II was a passenger train series of the kk priv. Kronprinz Rudolf-Bahn (KRB).

Because of the hilly routes, the KRB needed triple-coupled locomotives for passenger train service. It therefore procured 15 wet steam engines in the years 1868/69 from Sigl in Vienna , gave them the series designation  II and the numbers 1–29. At KRB, the passenger locomotives had odd numbers, the freight and tank locomotives even numbers. The vehicles were also named STEYR , LEOBEN , UNZMARKT , WALD , JUDENBURG , ST.VEIT , VILLACH , SCHAUERFELD , OSSIACH , KLAGENFURT , MÖSEL , GAISHORN , ROTTENMANN , WEYER and REICHRAMING .

After nationalization in 1884, the kkStB classified them as row  29 . However, in order to make room for the new Gölsdorf tank locomotive series  29 , the 29er series were renamed 929 in 1912  . After 1895 some of the machines got new boilers.

The 929.14 and 929.04 came to the Niederösterreichische Landesbahnen (NÖLB) as  5.01–02 .

After the First World War , the remaining 929.09 came to the BBÖ , which it retired in 1923.
