Locomotives 64 to 72 were tram locomotives that were taken over by the newly founded Süddeutsche Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft (SEG) in 1895 from their member railways. The locomotives were put into service in 1889 by railway consortia in which Herrmann Bachstein was involved. They were used on the trams in Mainz, Wiesbaden, Karlsruhe and Darmstadt.

history

In 1889, Henschel & Sohn delivered nine locomotives with the serial numbers 2834 to 2839 and 2881 to 2883 to the trams operated by the Central Administration.

number First use further missions
64 Darmstadt trams and suburban railways
65 Karlsruhe local railway
66 Wiesbaden – Biebrich steam train 1907 to Mannheim

68 Karlsruhe local railway
69 Mainz suburban railways 1914 to Zell – Todtnau

71 Wiesbaden – Biebrich steam train
72 Karlsruhe local railways

The locomotives were later used on other routes by the Süddeutschen-Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft.

The SEG 69 operated on the Mainz suburban railways until 1902 . In 1902 it came to the Karlsruhe Local Railway , where locomotive 72 from the same series was already in service. In 1914 it was transferred to the Zell – Todtnau railway line , where it replaced the SEG 93 previously used there . Due to the outer frame and inner engine, maintenance was more complicated than that of the predecessor machine. In 1928/29 the locomotive was returned, its further use is unknown.

technology

In terms of structure, the Henschel locomotives were robust and compact. Initially, they were made with an outer frame and an inner engine, although this made maintenance difficult. The locomotives for the SEG were built with a horizontal boiler and a roof condenser. They had a complete covering of the wheel arches and corner windows. The driver's cab had different designs with or without a window in the front. There was a ladder at the back of the cab.

From 1885 onwards, several variants relating to the wheelbase, wheel diameter, boiler output and tractive power were produced. At first the locomotives were equipped with an Allan control , later they were given a joystick.
