The LVF - Adda bis Alpone were steam locomotives of the Lombardy-Venetian Ferdinand Railway (LVF), a private Austrian-Hungarian railway company .

The four locomotives were delivered to the LVF by the Vienna – Gloggnitz Railway machine factory in 1847. They were given the names "ADDA", "SILE", "CANOVA" and "ALPONE". They were withdrawn from service before 1862.

According to a hypothesis that can no longer be proven historically, there would also have been 1A1 machines with the names "MARCO POLO", "SCALIGERO", "BERICO" and "POLENI", which were launched by the Vienna – Gloggnitz Railway machine factory in 1847 together with those described here the LVF were delivered. The locomotives described under LVF - Marco Polo to Poleni would then be identical to the WRB - Fahrafeld to Felixdorf .
