Prussian G 3
In the genus G 3, the Prussian State Railways classified a 1905 six-coupled freight locomotives medium performance. In addition to the locomotives of the normal type, there were also 285 G 3, which did not meet the standard parts, as they were mostly built before the foundation of the Prussian state railways.
History
The G 3 of the normal type was in its time the standard freight locomotive Prussian state railways. The first copies were procured from 1877 called for the " Kanonenbahn " Berlin- Wetzlar railroad. Further deliveries went to various public and private Prussian railways, to the Prussian state railways and the Royal Prussian military railway. Some of the locomotives had external control, but most internal control. The Directorate Frankfurt downgraded the locomotives with external control even as a G 2. A total of about 2068 locomotives were built G 3 Normal type. The G 3 differed from the Prussian G 4.1 by their lower boiler pressure of 10 bar compared to 12 bar at T 4.1. From 1886, only the design was further expanded with the higher boiler pressure. Some locomotives were later boiler with the higher boiler pressure and were then classified as T 4.1. A G 3 won the top division of the Berlin- Dresden railway at the Royal Saxon State Railways and received a generic V the name Tellkoppe.
As reparation came to the end of World War II three piece as FS 271001-003 to the Italian State Railways ( FS).
The German Reichsbahn 1923 saw 523 locomotives still in their renumbering than 53 7001-7522 and 53 8294 ( from Saxony ) for redrawing ago. 1925 but the locomotives were only provided with the numbers 53 7001-7157 for renumbering. The decommissioning took place until 1930.
During World War II two G 3 from Poland came as a 53 7005 and 7006 in the collections of the Deutsche Reichsbahn.
- Imperial Railways in Alsace- Lorraine: 37 pieces as C 21-C 24, G 3 later referred to, see Alsace -Lorraine G 3
- Referred to 2 pieces, as G 2: Lübeck- Büchener Railroad
G 3 at the Mecklenburg Friedrich- Franz Railway
Nearly twenty years after the procurement of the goods train locomotives of Class G 2 of the car park of Mecklenburg Friedrich- Franz Railway locomotives were added to dreifachgekuppelte the Prussian Class G 3 from 1892. The 1892 and 1894 procured by Schwartzkopff locomotives were given the track numbers 78, 85, 86 and 96 and were in the classified the genus IX. With the acquisition of the German-Nordic Lloyds still the two locomotives were 15 and 16 ( MFFE numbers 354 and 355 ) to do so. These machines were built in 1887 at Henschel. 1895 nor was the supply of two locomotives of Egestorff. Filed with the introduction of the new numbering scheme from 1895 in the number range 350-357 and designated in 1910 as a generic G 3.
After the founding of the Deutsche Reichsbahn were provisional renumbering of 1923 five locomotives included. This should, points 53 7701-53 7705. The machines were, however, until 1925 all retired.
The locomotives corresponded constructively the Prussian Class T 4.1 ( 12 bar boiler pressure type ), had over the Prussian execution but drive wheels with a size of 1350 mm. The vehicles received a Tender of the type 3 T 3 T 10.5 or 12
Locomotives received
Only a locomotive of the Prussian Class G 3, the " Cologne 1100 " and later " Saarbrücken 3143 ," remained in the DB Museum in Nuremberg, for posterity. She had been constructed from a Kranprüfgewicht again.
