The steam locomotive series 109 of the Southern Railway Company in Austria was an express train - Tender Locomotive series .

As a replacement for the aging 2C express train locomotives of the 32f series  , the Südbahn acquired significantly more powerful machines with the same axle configuration in 1910 . Ernst Prossy and Hans Steffan from the StEG locomotive factory worked out the design, which came from the machinery director of the Südbahn, Eustach Prossy (Ernst's father). The locomotives designated as series  109 represented the conclusion and climax in the development of the 2C machines in Austria . With them, the travel time between Vienna and Trieste could be reduced from 13.5 to 10.5 hours. Its smooth boiler is strongly reminiscent of Karl Gölsdorf's constructions, only the inlet pipes Gölsdorf would probably have moved inside. In addition to the StEG locomotive factory, the Floridsdorf locomotive factory and the Wiener Neustädter Lokomotivfabrik also delivered 44 units to the Südbahn until 1914. They were stationed in Vienna, Innsbruck , Marburg and Trieste.

After the First World War , only 17 remained in Austria, which were designated as BBÖ series  209 after the nationalization of the Southern Railway in 1923 , as series  109 was already occupied by former StEG machines. 13 each came to the railways of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes and later as class  03 to the JDŽ and as class  653 to the FS .

In 1913 the Südbahn also procured seven machines designated as series  109.1 for their Hungarian routes (109.101-107) from the Budapest machine works, and in 1917 two similar locomotives from the Floridsdorf locomotive works (109.108-109). These green painted machines came together with the 109.26 to the SB successor company DSA and after its dissolution in 1932 as 302,601–610 to the MÁV . From 1927 to 1930 four more machines with higher axle pressure were purchased (DSA 109.110-113 and MÁV 302.501-504).

In 1938 the Deutsche Reichsbahn took over all 17 Austrian locomotives as  class 38.41 , to which the 13 Yugoslav machines were later added. Eleven copies remained after 1945 as series 38 with the ÖBB . Eight of them received a Giesl ejector with boiler pipe throttling, which enabled the output to be increased by 30%. In 1967 the last locomotives in this series were cashed in. The 38.4101 was the Austrian railway museum pass and was housed in the following decades in various boiler plants until their final Patz in Railway Museum Strasshof found. It was reactivated until 1992 and is used for nostalgic trips with its southern runway designation 109.13.

In 1968 the retired from their 03 series. The 03-002 has been preserved and is part of the holdings of the Ljubljana Railway Museum .

In Hungary, the 302 series was parked between 1962 and 1968 and all machines except for the 302,610 were scrapped. This locomotive was first exhibited in Gárdony on the former southern line, but was restored to working condition in 1986. For this occasion it got the original number 109.109 and the green and red original color back.

The operational copies of this series have met several times in recent years at special events, most recently 109.13 and 109.109 in summer 2006 on the occasion of a rally to Mürzzuschlag and in October 2007 on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the Südbahn.
