The lengendary PtL 2/2 branch line locomotives were far better known by the name Glaskasten (Glass Box) than by their exact railroad technical designation. The nickname came from the special design of the engineers cab around the boiler. The semi-automatic coal firing for these locomotives made them suitable for one-man operation. This feature was the major factor in their being assigned for light branch line service.
