The Saxon VI were express locomotives of the Royal Saxon State Railways .

history

B orsig had nine in 1865 and H artmann 1860-1867 24 locomotives to Western State Railways delivered in 1869 in the Saxon Royal State Railways opened. Theeight other locomotives delivered by Hartmann in 1870 came directly to the state railway. As 1 B express train locomotives , they were assigned to class B VI or H VI , depending on the manufacturer. In 1874 Schwartzkopff had delivered 14 1 B express locomotives to the Berlin-Dresden Railway . After the railway was nationalizedby Prussia in1887, theline and operating resources were divided between Prussia and Saxonyin 1888 . The K. Sächs received six of these express locomotives . Sts. EB as type Schw VI , the other eight came to the Prussian State Railways . The Leipzig-Dresden Railway also procured6 express train locomotives from H en sch el in 1875 and 1876, which had been designated as Hsch VI or Hl VI since the nationalization in 1876.

The first examples still had a four-sided cupola from Stephenson and a fork frame. Later versions (Schwartzkopff, Henschel) were built with a Crampton shell and a solid sheet metal frame. Since their technical data z. In some cases they differ significantly from those of the Borsig and Hartmann deliveries (smaller drive wheels, higher boiler pressure), they are only added in brackets in the table at a few places. All copies had horizontal outer cylinders. Two locomotives from the Hartmann delivery of 1870 received a Nowotny barrel axle in 1885, so that the axle sequence was changed to 1 'B and the generic code to H VIb . The older types of type VI (since 1896 the manufacturer's specification was no longer part of the type designation) were taken out of service around the turn of the century (until 1905), the vehicles supplied by Schwartzkopff and Henschel followed from 1910. Even if these machines were in the 1920s Years ago they were rarities, three copies were considered in the preliminary re-drawing plan of the Deutsche Reichsbahn as 34 8001-8003, but in the final plan of 1925 the genus was no longer represented.
