Palatine T 4.I

what is it?

The locomotives of Palatine Class T 4I were saturated steam tank engines operated by the Palatinate Railway. Krauss delivered four of them in 1895 and a further three in 1897. The development of these engines had been based on the second batch of Bavarian D VIII engines and they differed only in a few dimensions: for example, the diameter of the carrying and coupled wheels was smaller.
