90 years express steam locomotives of the class 01 the epitome of German express steam locomotives formed over many years and almost until the end of steam traction in both German states, the series 01 of your fascination and switching of power, elegance and speed were able to escape neither lay nor professionals. In the first type of plan DRG were founded in 1920 with the series 01 and 02 each include a two-cylinder and four-cylinder Verbundschnellzuglok that were identical in all other parts. From 1926 were carried out with ten Vorausloks both types extensive comparison tests, which ultimately turned out in favor of the two-cylinder engine. With number 01012 began in 1927, the series production of the twin engines. Their procurement ended only in 1938, that took place over a period of more than twelve years, which had almost inevitably different constructions affect measurement. After the Second World War 171 copies remained in the later DB and 70 came to the later DR. Five DB machines were equipped 1950/51 Henschel mixer preheater and all 01er DB lost their big ears a favor of small Witte smoke deflectors. Both German State Railways decided in the late 1950s to modernize or reconstruct a part of their 01er. At DB, therefore a total of 50 machines were 1957 new welded high efficiency boiler. The reconstruction of the DR 35 locomotives changed fundamentally as a new series of 01.5. Many locomotives have been preserved and at least one of each variety even operational.
