The variety of the Prussian class T 3 undoubtedly made it among the most popular German steam locomotives. Henschel delivered the first example of a three-axle wet steam locomotive for branch line service to the Prussian State Railways (KPEV). The T 3 impressed people with its easy maintenance, sturdiness, and versatility. The KPEV therefore purchased the immense number of 1,345 units from 1881 to 1910. This led to this lovable tank locomotive being used all over Prussia and its domains. |
