KkStB Class 229
The steam locomotive number 229 kkStB was a passenger train tender locomotive series of kk Austrian State Railways ( kkStB ).
To improve the passenger transport procured the kkStB 1C- n2V tank locomotives that should replace the two -coupled Tender locomotives used for this purpose. The tender locomotives also had the advantage that the contact is saved at the end points. Karl Gölsdorf put in the design special attention to good acceleration. The 17 machines of this series were designated as 129 supplied from the locomotive factory Floridsdorf and Wiener Neustadt locomotive factory.
Since the locomotives of the series 129 have been quite successful, also wanted the Southern Railway obtain similar machines, but with larger inventories. Gölsdorf therefore modified the design by providing for a trailing axle. Floridsdorf supplies from 1903 to 1907 eleven piece these so-called series 229 locomotives on the Southern Railway. The kkStB was built from 1904 to 1918 239 pieces, all Austrian locomotive factories were involved. The machines of the series 129 were converted to 1C1 and redrawn in series 229.4. The Bohemian-Moravian Maschinenfabrik delivered in 1913 four piece 229er to the Serbian State Railways and the Wiener Neustadt locomotive factory made in 1909 and 1920, ten pieces for Aspangbahn ( EWA, Train Vienna - Aspangbahn ) that they. Than EWA IIIa No. 41-50 designated.
After the First World War, 69 pieces at the Austrian Federal Railways remained (then BBÖ ), which after nationalization the Southern Railway eleven piece as 229.5 and the ten machines of the EWA as 229.8 came. Polish State Railways (PKP ) received 22 as a series OKl12, the Yugoslav Railways ( JDZ ) got 25 as a series JDZ 116 and the Italian State Railways ( FS) five as FS 912, the majority of machines ( 145 pcs ) came after 1918, but the Czech State Railways ( ČSD ) that they einordneten as number 354.0. In 1939, when the southern Slovakia was ceded to Hungary, came 15 pieces as number 343.3 to the Hungarian State Railways ( MÁV ).
From 1926 to 1934, the ČSD built five of its 354.0 into hot steam twin locomotives, which she described as 355.0. These machines also received a second dome and a connecting tube between the domes. For further five piece rear drive shaft was replaced with a bogie 1936-1940; these machines were called 353.1. 1944, a machine was converted to superheated steam, in which, however was not used, the second steam dome.
After the annexation of Austria to the German Reich in 1938, the 90 pieces 229er were supported by the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR ) redrawn as 75701-790. In the course of the fighting the ČSD 355.0 as 75901-905, 21 pieces PKP Okl12 as 75851-871 and 75791-799 nine JDZ than the 116 also came to the DR
After 1945, 63 units at ÖBB were classified as number 75. The last machines of this series in 1962 resigned.
The former 229 137, 178, 187, 405 and 115 came as 354.0501-0504 and 0506 to ČSD. When ČSD the 354.0 to 1967 were in use.
Some former 229er came even to the JDZ and the PKP.
