The steam locomotive series SB 103 was a tank locomotive series of the Südbahngesellschaft (SB), a private Austrian-Hungarian railway company . The small, two-axle locomotives were used on the Windisch-Feistritz SB – Stadt Windisch-Feistritz railway .

The two locomotives were ordered by the State of Styria and were delivered to Kleinbahn by Krauss in Linz in 1909 .

The Südbahngesellschaft (SB), which operated on the small railroad from 1908 to 1918, ran the machines as the 103 series with the operating numbers 101-102. After the end of the First World War their track is lost. Maybe they came to Yugoslavia .
