The StEG I 158–168 were the first express train - tender locomotives of the Staats-Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft (StEG), a private Austrian-Hungarian railway company .
When the StEG introduced express train service on some of its routes in 1861, it ordered the corresponding locomotives. Eleven locomotives were delivered by the StEG locomotive factory in 1861. The machines had external frames, external cylinders and Hall cranks . The return to uncoupled machines seems unusual for the time of procurement, but the vehicles did not have a two-axle bogie, but two fixed leading axles. The structure of the locomotives was similar to the Duplex , but only had two cylinders. The vehicles were the first of the StEG that had a small sheet metal wall to protect the staff from the weather; later they were given a regular driver's cab as part of conversions. They got the company numbers 158–168 and names, u. a. KARLOWITZ .
While these vehicles were in operation, the distance between the buffers at the StEG was also brought into line with international standards. At times the locomotives were therefore traveling with four buffers on each side of the vehicle (see photo).
From 1873 they were given the company numbers 3–13 and belonged to category IIIe '. In 1897 they were named 1001-1011. The machines were taken out of service before 1909.
