The Palatine 26-63 were steam locomotives of Pfalzbahn and typical fast - Tender locomotives of the type Crampton with the wheel arrangement 2A. Both running axles were stored in the main frame, the driving axle was behind the standing cup . This enabled drive wheels with a diameter of 1830 mm to be installed without placing the boiler higher than was customary at the time. As a further special feature, at least the "Pfalz" locomotive already had weather protection for the engine driver and stoker , which was not common at the time.
14 copies were made by Keßler ( Maschinenfabrik Esslingen ) and four by Maffei . The Maffei locomotives had the regulator housing in the middle of the boiler, a larger smoke chamber than those from Keßler, a smooth standing boiler and valve boxes arranged above the cylinders . The locomotives were equipped with type 3 T 5 tenders .
In 1925 the first copy, PFALZ , was reproduced in the Weiden repair shop. This replica is now on loan from the Nuremberg Transport Museum in the Neustadt / Weinstrasse Railway Museum .
