The steam locomotive series SB 1 II was a tank locomotive series of the Südbahngesellschaft (SB), a private Austrian-Hungarian railway company .

The "wing railway" Mödling - Laxenburg ( Laxenburger Bahn ), which made it possible for the imperial court society to reach the emperor's summer residence, Laxenburg, by rail , therefore had a lot of traffic, especially in summer. The SB, which ran operations on the wing railway, ordered two small 1A tank locomotives for this railway from the StEG locomotive factory in 1889 . The two locomotives were given the series designation  1 with a second occupation and the operating numbers 2 and 3.

In order to ensure the safe transport of the emperor in his courtyard car , the vehicles were equipped with vacuum brakes , Ricour brakes and snow plows .

The two machines were replaced by class 4 II locomotives between 1910 and 1915 and then shut down. The final retirement should have taken place around 1920.
