This list gives an overview of the locomotives and railcars that were in the Prussian state railways. Also included are the locomotives of the Grand Duchy of Hesse State Railways (Grossherzoglich Hessischen Staatseisenbahnen) and the Prussian-Hessian Railway Company (Preussisch-Hessischen Eisenbahngemeinschaft).

Locomotive classification

1883 classification system

Up to 1 April 1883 the Prussian state railways or acquired private railways designated their locomotives with names and/or numbers. From that date the following numbering scheme was introduced into all the railway divisions.

1 to 99uncoupled locomotives
100 to 499four-coupled passenger train locomotives
500 to 799four-coupled goods train locomotives
800 to 1399six-coupled goods train locomotives
1400 to 1699four-coupled tank locomotives
1700 to 1899six-coupled tank locomotives
1900 to 1999special locomotives

This scheme applied to all state railway divisions and state-managed private railways. Locomotive numbering was organised according to the above system. However a locomotive could only be identified exactly by using the divisional name and running number in combination.

Because of the increasing numbers of locomotives being procured, the classification scheme and its range of numbers were no longer sufficient. However the numbering system was not immediately replaced. As a result, numbering chaos arose as individual divisions used spare numbers and unique designations for new locomotives.

1903 classification system

Due to the resulting confusion a new classification scheme was introduced in 1903. This was based on the systems used in the Cologne West Rhine (Coeln linksrheinisch), Elberfeld und Magdeburg railway divisions. This changeover took place between 1905 and 1908 within the divisions.

There were four main groups:

An additional number represented the power delivered by the engine and together specified its group. The higher the number the more powerful the locomotive. Engines with a medium power rating were given the number 3. Saturated steam engines were given odd, and superheated steam locomotives even, numbers.

The individual locomotive groups were given a specific range of numbers, that often differentiated between two-cylinder (Zwillings-) and compound locomotives.

Because the group criteria allowed a certain degree of freedom, and because the myriad locomotives were often different, it was possible for the same type of locomotive to be placed in different groups in the different railway divisions.

From 1910 the divisions within the groups were further refined using indices. And as older locomotives were mustered out the groups became largely uniform. As a result, from that time the group designation became simultaneously a class designation. In the margins of this measure, individual locomotive types were redesignated into other groups.

From 1914 the allocation of numbers began to be no longer consistent. This situation became worse after the end of the First World War as a result of the dissolution of the railway divisions as well as the disorganised way in which locomotives were entered into service.

Classification system for technical and engineering purposes

For technical and engineering purposes, the system introduced in 1883 was not practicable. In order to describe individual types of locomotive a second system was therefore brought in.

This scheme was based on a leading fraction for the running gear ratio, capital letters to specify the primary role and type of steam used, and additional abbreviations for special features.

  • H. – Heissdampf- = superheated
  • S. – Schnellzug- = express train
  • P. – Personenzug- = passenger train
  • G. – Güterzug- = goods train
  • T. – Tender- = tank
  • L. – Lokomotive = locomotive
  • u. – und = and
  • dr. – Laufdrehgestell = carrying bogie
  • dr. kr. – Krauss-Drehgestell (-Lenkgestell) = Krauss-Helmholtz bogie (pony truck)
  • 3cyl. – Dreizylinder- = three-cylinder
  • 4cyl. – Vierzylinder- = four-cylinder
  • v. – Verbund-Triebwerk = compound drive

There were no special abbreviations for wet steam engines, tender locomotives, two-cylinder engines and simple steam expansion.

So 2/4 H. S. L. dr. meant a four-coupled, four axled, superheated express train locomotive with carrying bogie.

Further details such as 'bus' ("Omnibus") were spelt out in full. With the addition of phrases like 'with trailing axle' ("mit hinterer Laufachse") it was possible to distinguish whether a carrying wheelset was in front of or behind the coupled wheels. Following on were further descriptions in order to differentiate the different locomotives. So, for example, the name of the design company, or the name of the railway division that first procured the engine, or the fact that the locomotive was built to certain standards, were added. This classification system continued even after the introduction of the 1903 scheme. From 1910 the detail of the wheel arrangement as a fraction was replaced by a combination of figures for carrying axles and letters for coupled axles (see UIC classification).

Classification of electric locomotives and railbuses

The first locomotives built from 1908 were given the Class designation "WSL" - Wechselstrom-Schnellzug-Lokomotive (AC express train locomotive) and "WGL" - Wechselstrom-Güterzug-Lokomotive (AC goods train locomotive) as well as operating numbers: from 10201 for the goods train engines and 10501 for the expresses. In addition the name of the railway division followed. Because the system was no longer adequate for the locomotives ordered from 1911 a system was introduced similar to the steam engine classification scheme.

It comprised the class designations:

  • ES – Schnellzuglokomotiven = express train locomotives (operating numbers starting at 1)
  • EP – Personenzuglokomotiven = passenger train locomotives (operating numbers starting at 201)
  • EG – Güterzuglokomotiven = goods train locomotives (operating numbers starting at 501)
  • EV – Verschiebelokomotiven = pusher locomotives (operating numbers starting at 1)

Multiple locomotives were designated with lower case letters.

The railbuses were initially only given an operating number. From 1910 type letters were introduced.

  • AT – Akkumulatortriebwagen = accumulator railbus (operating numbers starting at 201), later only "A"
  • DT – Dampftriebwagen = steam railbus (operating numbers starting at 1)
  • VT – Verbrennungsmotortriebwagen = combustion engine railbus (operating numbers starting at 1)
  • ET – Elektrotriebwagen = electric railbus (various numbering systems)

There were far more locomotives than available 4-digit numbers; consequently each division had its own list. Locomotives transferred between divisions would be renumbered. The 22 divisions were:

  • Altona [Hamburg]
  • Berlin
  • Breslau
  • Bromberg
  • Cassel
  • Danzig
  • Elberfeld
  • Erfurt
  • Essen
  • Frankfurt
  • Halle
  • Hannover
  • Kattowitz
  • Köln [Cologne]
  • Königsberg
  • Magdeburg
  • Mainz
  • Münster
  • Osten
  • Posen
  • Saarbrücken
  • Stettin

The operating numbers were always given together with their originating railway division in order to avoid any possible confusion.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Prussian state railways</span> Railway companies in the State of Prussia

The term Prussian state railways encompasses those railway organisations that were owned or managed by the State of Prussia. The words "state railways" are not capitalized because Prussia did not have an independent railway administration; rather the individual railway organisations were under the control of the Ministry for Trade and Commerce or its later offshoot, the Ministry for Public Works.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Swiss locomotive and railcar classification</span> Classifications of Swiss trains

For more than a century, the Swiss locomotive, multiple unit, motor coach and railcar classification system, in either its original or updated forms, has been used to name and classify the rolling stock operated on the railways of Switzerland. It started out as a uniform system for the classification and naming of all rolling stock, powered and unpowered, but had been replaced and amended by the UIC classification of goods wagons.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Prussian G 8.1</span>

The Prussian G 8.1 was steam locomotive operated by the Prussian state railways. It was a heavier, stronger development of the G 8 and was initially referred to as a 'strengthened standard class'.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Prussian G 12</span>

The Prussian G 12 is a 1'E 2-10-0 goods train locomotive built for the Prussian state railways.

The DRG locomotive classification system was developed by the German Imperial Railway Company or Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft (DRG), which was formed in 1924 following the merger of the German state railways (Länderbahnen) in 1920. A common classification and numbering scheme was needed in order to organise effectively the four hundred or so different steam locomotive classes taken over from the state railways, as well as new locomotives. This process lasted until 1926. Only then was the final renumbering plan fixed.

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.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Saxon XX HV</span>

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.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Prussian P 6</span>

The Prussian Class P 6s were passenger locomotives operated by the Prussian state railways with a leading axle and three coupled axles.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Saxon XIV HT</span>

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 ELBE to HAYN series of early, German, steam locomotives were equipped with tenders and operated by the Leipzig–Dresden Railway Company.

The RICHARD HARTMANN to ZWICKAU series of early German locomotives were express train tender locomotives operated by the Leipzig–Dresden Railway Company.

The Saxon VI were a class of early German, express train, steam locomotives operated by the Royal Saxon State Railways.

The Prussian Class G 5.1 steam engines were the first 2-6-0 goods locomotives in Europe. They were developed for the Prussian state railways from the Class G 4 and a total of no less than 264 units of this class were placed in service in Prussia between 1892 and 1902. The twin-cylinder G 5.1 had been designed to raise the speed of goods trains on main lines. In addition, more powerful engines were needed for the increasingly heavy train loads. The locomotives, which were equipped with a compressed air brake, were used in charge of fast goods trains (Eilgüterzugdienst) and also passenger trains due to their impressive top speed of 65 km/h. The G 5.1 was fitted with inside Allan valve gear and the carrying wheels were of the Adams axle design. The engines were coupled with tenders of Class pr 3 T 12. In Prussian service they were renumbered in 1905 into the 4001–4150 range.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Saxon IIIb V</span>

The Saxon Class IIIb was a twin-coupled tender locomotive built for passenger services with the Royal Saxon State Railways.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Saxon VIII V2</span>

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.
