BR 10 – the black swan of the Federal Railways. Although the German Federal Railways (DB) considered the steam traction as a phase-out model, in 1953 Krupp was awarded an order to develop a new Pacific express train locomotive in Essen. In 1957 two elegant, 26,503 mm long and partially covered, 2'C1' H3 models with a drive wheel diameter of 2,000 mm were delivered under serial number 10, which differed significantly due to their type of firing. While 10 001 was initially equipped with only one additional oil firing (a change was made later), 10 002 had a main oil firing from the beginning. The two locomotives, embellished by silver-colored decorative lines, equipped with conical smoke chamber doors, reached a maximum speed of 140 km/h with an induced power of 1,839 kW. Due to the high axle load, the two locomotives were only permitted on certain main routes. Until 1962, they were stationed in the BW Bebra, then in the BW Kassel, from where they were used in the heavy express train service on the north-south route and the Main-Weser Bahn. The general structural change with the ever-increasing electrification of the main lines was the main reason why the series 10 did not go into series production. In January 1967, 10 002 suffered a break on a spool rod and was retired. In 1972, their scrapping took place in the BW Offenburg. In June of the following year, 10 001 also had to acknowledge their active service at the Deutsche Bundesbahn. However, the 109-ton locomotive of the postworld has been preserved and can still be visited at the German Steam Locomotive Museum in Neuenmarkt-Wirsberg.This text is machine translated.
