The MAV series 390.1 was a narrow gauge - steam locomotive of the former Kuk Army train passing through their use in Borzsavölgyi Gazdasági Vasút (BGV; German: Borzsatalbahn ) after 1941 when the Hungarian State Railways MÁV was incorporated.

history

The machine was procured in 1911 by Henschel & Sohn in Kassel for a forest railway company near Bolechov and was apparently used in a steam sawmill there. It is possible that not only one machine of this type has been delivered. Only a few technical data of the locomotives are available.

The locomotive was confiscated by the Austro-Hungarian Army Railways during the First World War and remained on the forest railway tracks in Slovakia until the Second World War .

The deployment data are not complete. It is said to have been used in Dubové in 1917 , from 1942 to 1944 on the former Uschhorod - Radwanka forest railway and from 1944 to the 1950s on the Borzsavölgyi Gazdasági Vasút (BGV; German: Borzsatalbahn ).

In 1941 it was given the MÁV designation. There is a photo of her in Berehove .
