The KrOs VII – VIII were tender locomotives of the kk priv. Krakau-Oberschlesischen Eisenbahn (KrOs).
history
The two locomotives were delivered by Borsig in Berlin in 1849. When the KrOs was nationalized in 1850, the two machines came to the kk Eastern State Railroad (ÖStB), which gave them the names PRŻEMYSL and DNJESTR .
In 1858 the ÖStB was re-privatized, with parts of the lines coming to the kk priv. Kaiser Ferdinands-Nordbahn (KFNB) and the Galician Carl Ludwig-Bahn (CLB). The vehicle fleet, however, went entirely to the CLB. The CLB assigned road numbers 3 and 4 to the locomotives in 1868. Presumably they were retired in 1873.
