The Marburger Kreisbahn 6 tank locomotive was a steam locomotive with a D wheel arrangement that was originally delivered to the Friedrich Heinrich colliery in 1920 . From 1927 to 1934 it operated on the Marburger Kreisbahn , where it was number 6 . It was then sold to the Wilhelmine Mevissen colliery in Duisburg-Rheinhausen , where the locomotive was in operation until 1968.
history
The locomotive with the Hanomag factory number 8158 was delivered in 1920 to the Friedrich Heinrich colliery, where it was in operation until 1927.
In 1927 it was handed over to Marburg , where it received a general inspection for a possible sale . Since no buyer could be found, it was put into operation as number 6 by the Marburger Kreisbahn .
Like Locomotive 5, the locomotive was unpopular and was rarely used. Despite the double content of the water box, it was designed as a hut locomotive and was unsuitable for use on the Marburg circuit. Despite Gölsdorf axles and two axles with weakened wheel flanges, the locomotive forced a lot when cornering. Because of its efficiency, it was mostly used at peak times. In 1934 it was sold to the Wilhelmine Mevissen colliery in Duisburg-Rheinhausen via a company from Cologne , where it was used as number 3 . The locomotive was in operation until 1968 and was then retired and scrapped.
technology
The locomotive was designed as a hut locomotive, with the great locomotive friction load and power in the foreground. The locomotive was operated with wet steam . The cladding of the two sandboxes with the steam dome originally ran in a cuboid shape up to the top of the steam dome. During later renovations, the sandboxes were shortened and gave a view of the steam dome. It had a sandpit each for driving forwards and backwards. For each direction of travel, the locomotive was equipped with a sand pipe on each side of the engine in front of the leading axle. The locomotive had the largest water supply of all locomotives used on the Marburger Kreisbahn. All wheelsets were braked from the front.
