German Federal Railway Steam Locomotive 39 237

Class 39 of the German Federal Railways (formerly Prussian P 10) was a powerful express locomotive of the standard class, which was originally developed for heavy slow train service on steep gradients. Thanks to its axle arrangement, a three-cylinder driving gear and power of around 1,800 hp, it was used particularly on mountain railways such as the Middle Rhine railway or in Thuringia. After the Second World War, numerous machines remained with the German Federal Railways, which continued to use them until the 1950s, particularly in southern Germany.
