Prototype:

The mass production of this enormous 3-cylinder freight locomotive began in 1937. A total of 1753 machines of this type for the German Reichbahn were prepared. From 1958, 36 locomotives were converted to oil firing and coupled with converted tenders the type T34 at the German Federal Railroad. After that they ran from about 1968 as 043 machines  and were considered one of the strongest German steam locomotives. 2100 hp and a train weight of up to 2,400 t, their past probably remain unforgotten mainly from the heavy ore trains in Emsland.
