The NStB - Ransko, Reichenberg and Strahow were steam locomotives of the Imperial and Royal Northern State Railways (NStB) of Austria-Hungary .

The three locomotives were delivered by the William Norris locomotive factory in Vienna in 1846. These were the first and at the same time the last three locomotives from the Norris branch in Vienna, which soon went bankrupt and was finally bought by Georg Sigl .

The NStB gave them the names RANSKO , REICHENBERG and STRAHOW as well as the company numbers 26-28.

When the NStB was sold to the StEG in 1855 , the machines were given road numbers 55–57. All three vehicles were retired in 1865.
