what is it?
The Prussian G 12 CFOA-type variant was a class of German 2-10-0 locomotives used by the Prussian state railways. The locomotives of this type were originally an order from the Ottoman Ministry of War, and fifteen examples were intended for the Chemins de fer Ottomans d'Anatolie (CFOA). Due to the course of the war, only five locomotives could initially be delivered by Henschel to the CFOA. The other five locomotives went to the German Military Railways with the consent of the customer.
