The Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg Friedrich-Franz Railway grouped the various 2-2-2 steam locomotives procured between 1848 and 1863 into its Mecklenburg Class I. == History == The ''MARSCHALL VORWÄRTS'' was delivered in 1848 by the Berlin locomotive works, Lokomotivfabrik F. Wöhlert, with factory number 1 and was given the running number 4 by the Mecklenburg Railway Company (''Mecklenburgische Eisenbahngesellschaft''). On its nationalisation, the locomotive was renumbered to 42 and, on the introduction of a new numbering plan in 1895, to number 1. In 1866 the locomotive was given a new boiler and was retired in 1900. During a visit to the workshop the driving axle was incorrectly fitted by mistake, with the result that the locomotive ran backwards through the wall of the shed during the ensuing test run. The locomotives ''SCHWAAN'' and ''NEBEL'' were delivered in 1850 by Borsig and given railway numbers 9 and 10. On nationalisation they were renumbered to 45 and 46. ''NEBEL'' was retired in 1890, whilst ''SCHWAAN'' continued in service until 1898 and from 1895 carried the number 3. ''HERTHA'' and ''FREYA'' were also delivered by Borsig - in 1860 - and allocated numbers 23 and 24. They were renumbered to 55 and 56 on nationalisation and, subsequently, to 4 and 5 in 1895. The engines were retired in 1894 and 1899. In 1863 Egestorff supplied no. 25, ''HULDA''. The engine was allocated number 57 after nationalisations and number 5 in 1895. In 1901 she was retired. The performance of these locomotives was sufficient for level routes. They were mainly placed in charge of passenger trains on the Hagenow–Rostock line and occasionally hauled mixed trains. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mecklenburg I」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
