The MMo - Brianza was one of the first steam locomotives on the Milan – Monza (MMo) railway .

The machine was built by Cockerill in Seraing / Belgium in 1840 . It had an outer frame and an inner cylinder and was actually a bit undersized for its time.

At MMo she was given the name BRIANZA .

When the MMo was nationalized in 1851, it came under the same name to the Lombardy-Venetian State Railways (LVStB), from which it was retired before 1856.
