Product Features and Details
The first unit left the factory in July of 1908. By 1911, Maffei delivered another 16 largely
identical units in three production runs. In a departure from the first locomotives,
18 units (Series d and e, Maffei 1912/1913, road numbers 3624-3641) were equipped
with driving wheels with a diameter of 2,000 mm / 78-3/4”. This meant that the boiler
on these units was also higher.
Prototype: Bavarian type S 3/6 express steam locomotive with
a type 2´2 T32.5 coal tender. Royal Bavarian State Railways (K.Bay.Sts.B.).
Subclass d, the “Hochhaxige” / “High Stepper” with 2,000 mm / 78-3/4“

around 1912.
