The Saxon I F (one F) was a class of one 0-4-0 fireless steam locomotive built for the Royal Saxon State Railways.
The locomotive was manufactured in 1917 by the Sächsischen Maschinenfabrik in Chemnitz with the serial number 3981 for the Wülknitz Sleeper Works (Schwellentränkwerk Wülknitz; now the Oberbauwerk Wülknitz) as a shunting locomotive. For reasons of fire protection the use of a "fire-free" locomotive was desired, especially as there was enough available steam to operate the locomotive.
About 1970, the locomotive was withdrawn by Oberbauwerk Wülknitz, and was subsequently scrapped. [1]
Four similar locomotives were built for various industries between 1914 and 1916. The locomotives differed both in the dimensions of the steam engine and in the permitted operating pressure of the steam accumulator . One locomotive (for Lange of Auerhammer) was built as a crane locomotive.
| Works No. | Year | Built for |
|---|---|---|
| 3825 | 1914 | Gottfried Lindner AG , Amendorf |
| 3841 | 1914 | Kr. Lange, Auerhammer |
| 3880 | 1915 | Kgl. Sächs. Pulverfabrik Gnaschwitz |
| 3905 | 1916 | Vereinigte Bautzner Papierfabriken |
The Sächsische Maschinenfabrik built another locomotive in 1922 with the serial number 4536 for their own use.
The German Class 99.73-76 engines were standard locomotives (Einheitslokomotiven) in service with the Deutsche Reichsbahn for Saxony's narrow gauge railways. Together with their follow-on class, the DR Class 99.77-79, they were the most powerful narrow gauge locomotives in Germany for the 750 mm track gauge.
The Saxon Class XVIII was a German six-coupled tender locomotive built for the Royal Saxon State Railways in 1917/18 for express train services. The Deutsche Reichsbahn grouped them in 1925 into DRG Class 18.0.
The Saxon Class XX were German eight-coupled express train, tender locomotives built for the Royal Saxon State Railways just after the First World War. The locomotives, which became known as the 'Pride of Saxony' (Sachsenstolz) were the first and only German express locomotives with a 2-8-2 wheel arrangement and, at the time of their appearance, were the largest express engines in the whole of Europe. In 1925, the Deutsche Reichsbahn grouped these locomotive into their DRG Class 19.0.
The Sächsische Maschinenfabrik in Chemnitz was one of the most important engineering companies in Saxony in the second half of the 19th century and the first two decades of the 20th century. Including its various predecessor businesses, the firm existed from 1837 until its liquidation in 1930, and individual branches of the company taken over by others continued to operate until 1990. The company is closely linked with the name of its founder and long-time manager, Richard Hartmann, whose name formed part of the new company title in 1898: the Sächsische Maschinenfabrik vormals Richard Hartmann.
The Saxon Class XIV T locomotives were six-coupled tank engines operated by the Royal Saxon State Railways for mixed duties on main and branch lines. In 1925, the Deutsche Reichsbahn grouped them into their DRG Class 75.5.
The Saxon Class V K were German 0-8-0T narrow gauge steam locomotives operated by the Royal Saxon State Railways which had been primarily intended for the Müglitztalbahn. In 1925 the Deutsche Reichsbahn incorporated arranged these locomotives as DRG Class 99.61.
The Royal Saxon State Railways designated four-coupled, Atlantic (4-4-2) express locomotives as Class X and the Deutsche Reichsbahn subsequently grouped these locomotives into DRG Class 14.2 in 1925.
Columbus was a tender locomotive operated by the Leipzig–Dresden Railway Company.
The Pegasus was an early, passenger train tender locomotive operated by the Leipzig–Dresden Railway Company or LDE. She was one of the first locomotives to be built in Germany.
The BRÜSSEL was an early German, steam locomotive. It was used by the Leipzig–Dresden Railway Company (LDE) for hauling passenger trains.
The RICHARD HARTMANN to ZWICKAU series of early German locomotives were express train tender locomotives operated by the Leipzig–Dresden Railway Company.
The MOLDAU to MULDE series of early, German steam engines were designed as tender locomotives for the Leipzig–Dresden Railway Company for mixed duties.
The BORSDORF to ZITTAU series of early, German tender locomotives were used by the Leipzig–Dresden Railway Company for mixed duties.
Richard Hartmann was a German engineering manufacturer.
The Saxon Class VII T were twin-coupled tank engines of the Royal Saxon State Railways designed for branch line (Sekundärbahn) operations. In 1925, the Deutsche Reichsbahn grouped these locomotives 1925 into their Class 98.70.
The Saxon Class IIIb was a twin-coupled tender locomotive built for passenger services with the Royal Saxon State Railways.
The Saxon Class VIII 2 was a twin-coupled tender locomotive procured for passenger services by the Royal Saxon State Railways. In 1925, the Deutsche Reichsbahn grouped these engines into their Class 36.9-10.
The Saxon Class V was a triple-coupled, goods train, tender locomotive operated by the Royal Saxon State Railways. In 1925, the Deutsche Reichsbahn regrouped the locomotives 25 into their DRG Class 53.6–7.
The Saxon class I T were a class of 19 German 0-4-4-0 Meyer tank locomotives built for the Royal Saxon State Railways for service of the Windbergbahn. The Deutsche Reichsbahn assigned them to Class 98.0.
The Saxon class M I T was a class of two German 0-4-4-0 Meyer tank locomotives built for the Royal Saxon State Railways
