The steam locomotives "BRUCK" to "SCHWECHAT" were eight passenger locomotives of the Vienna – Raaber (Gloggnitzer) Eisenbahn (WRB).
As a follow-up delivery to the “ADLITZGRABEN” and “KAISERBRUNN” , the company's own machine factory, which later became the StEG locomotive factory , delivered somewhat stronger, slightly modified “Kleine Gloggnitzer” to the WRB. They were given the names "BRUCK", "WIESELBURG", "HIMBERG", "VELM", "LANZENDORF", "NEUSIEDL", "HAINBURG" and "SCHWECHAT".
In 1853 the "BRUCK", the "HIMBERG" and the "VELM" came to the Eastern State Railway (ÖStB), from which they also came to the State Railway Company (StEG) as No. 75–77 and were retired in 1865. The remaining five copies for the Southern State Railway (SStB). These also came to the Südbahn , which gave them the numbers 244–246 and 250–251 (later 247–248 ) and the series number 5 (from 1864 series 11 ). They were retired from 1869 to 1870.
