SB 14 (locomotive series)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The steam locomotive series SB 14 I , SB 14a and SB 14b were locomotives of the Austrian Southern Railway . The 14 I originally came from the Südliche Staatsbahn (SStB), the 14a from the Graz-Köflacher Bahn and the 14b from the Kaiser Franz Joseph-Orientbahn (KFJOB).

In 1857 the Southern State Railroad procured 6 2B express train locomotives from the StEG locomotive factory , which were named RAUHENSTEIN, BADEN, LIECHTENSTEIN, HIETZING, HETZENDORF and BELVEDERE . After the founding of the Südbahn they were given the number 270-275 and initially the series designation  8 . The BELVEDERE and the HETZENDORF were sold to Italy in 1863, the RAUHENSTEIN to the Hardy company in 1864 . The remaining three machines received the new series designation 14 from 1864 , but were retired by 1865.

The SB 14a (GKB) series

GKB No. 10–11

In 1878 the Südbahn took over two tunnel locomotives from the GKB named LANKOWITZ and ROSENTHAL . The machines were built in 1870 by Georg Sigl's locomotive factory in Wiener Neustadt . The Südbahn gave them the series designation  14a and the numbers 270 and 271 . In 1924 they took over the Austrian Federal Railways as  14,270-271 . The 14,271 was soon retired. The 14.270 was used in the shunting service and came to the Deutsche Reichsbahn as  98.7901 in 1938 . It was not retired until 1952.

The SB 14b (KFJOB) series

KFJOB
SB 14b
SB 272
SB 272

Driving wheel diameter: 1,106 mm
Cylinder diameter: 316 mm
Piston stroke: 632 mm
Boiler overpressure: 6.3 bar
Grate area: 0.80 m²
Evaporation heating surface: 50.60 m²

In 1858, KFJOB procured six B-tank locomotives as construction locomotives. These had neither names nor numbers and came to the Südbahn in 1867, which assigned them the row number  14 and the numbers 270-275 with a second line-up. After the 271 and 273 had been eliminated, the 270 was changed to 273 in 1878 . The locomotives were rebuilt (class  14b ) and used as local railroad locomotives. They were retired from 1884 to 1888.
