Deutsche Bundesbahn, West Germany, class 23 steam locomotive


A total of 105 of this 2-6-2 type were built in the 1950s, intended for passenger trains. Builders were Henschel, Krupp, Jung and Maschinenfabrik Esslingen. All were withdrawn by 1976; 8 are preserved, 3 in Holland and 5 operational. Here, loco 23 007 is seen at Bengel in 1971 with 'Silberlinge' passenger cars. German wikipedia page
