The SStB - Schönbrunn to Großwardein were steam locomotives of the Southern State Railway (SStB) of Austria-Hungary .
The four locomotives were supplied by the WRB locomotive factory in 1854. They were given the names "SCHÖNBRUNN", "MERKENSTEIN", "RODAUN" and "GROSSWARDEIN". The large wheel diameters of this series probably enabled high speeds, but they were probably also used in front of freight trains, as they were not that heavy at the time.
The locomotives of this series came in 1858 as part of the privatization of Austrian State Railways to the Südbahngesellschaft , which assigned them the numbers 287-290 and the series number 11 (from 1864 part of series 8 ). The retirement took place between 1864 and 1866.
