The no. 8 (second band) of Mecklenburg-Pomerania narrow gauge railway was a dreifachgekuppelte steam locomotive . The locomotive manufactured by Jung was named 99 3451 after it was taken over by the Deutsche Reichsbahn .

history

As a follow-up to the locomotives No. 1 II to 7 II , which were delivered until 1913 , the Mecklenburg-Pomerania Narrow Gauge Railway acquired a largely identical locomotive, but in a superheated steam version. The locomotive named FROM LANCKEN was the first steam locomotive for the light railway track mm of 600th The locomotive equipped with the Schmidt superheater showed savings in coal and water consumption. The MPSB therefore decided to only order superheated steam locomotives from now on.

When it was taken over by the Deutsche Reichsbahn in 1949, the locomotive was referred to as 99 3451. The locomotive was stationed at the Anklam train station until 1966. It was retired on October 11, 1966 and then scrapped.

Constructive features

The locomotives had an outer frame made of sheet metal.

The steam dome was located behind the chimney and had a Schmidt & Wagner type wet steam valve controller. The Ramsbottom safety valve was located directly in front of the cab. The originally existing Kobel chimney was later replaced by a forge of the Prüsmann type .

The external superheated steam engine was slightly inclined and worked on the third axis. It had a Heusinger control with a Kuhn loop and a piston valve.

The locomotive had double flange wheels on delivery. These were replaced by normal flange wheels in 1920.

On the roof of the driver's cab without ventilation were the steam flare mechanism and the steam whistle. Later the whistle was moved to the standing kettle and the bell between the chimney and cathedral. To increase the operating radius, the locomotive was given an additional coal box on the rear wall of the driver's cab. In addition, she was coupled to a water tender. The Deutsche Reichsbahn installed a turbo generator for electrical lighting.

The round sandpit manually sanded the third coupling axle from the front.
