The NStB - Melnik to Sazawa were steam locomotives of the Imperial and Royal Northern State Railways (NStB) of Austria-Hungary .
The eight locomotives were delivered by the Meyer locomotive factory in Mulhouse in 1844 and 1845. The NStB gave them the names MELNIK , KUTTENBERG , PLANIAN , BERAUN , ELBE , MOLDAU , KÖNIGSWART and SAZAWA as well as the company numbers 53-60.
