Christian Lindecke [] (visited 12 December 2003) for data. When the Bad.St.B opened its line between Mannheim and Heidelberg, it operated these little locomotives supplied by Sharp, Roberts & Co (predecessor to Sharp, Stewart). Built on an internal plate frame with external splashers over the drivers, the 1st two locomotives ("Lion" and "Seize") were originally delivered with 12" cylinders. They were upgraded to 13" when the third and 4th (Heidelberg & Mannheim) arrived in 1841. Robert and Freiburg, the 5th and 6th engines, which were delivered in 1843 had 14" cylinders.

Christian Lindecke [] (visited 12 December 2003) for data. Almost identical to the other 8 1bs, this engine had the Meyer expansion valve gear that used a set of auxiliary valve that rested on the primary slide valve and controlled the length of time steam would be admitted into the primary valve. The builder also increased the cylinder diameter by 2", the boiler pressure, and a few sq ft to the heating surface.

Christian Lindecke [] (visited 12 December 2003) for data. Lindecke says these were the first express locomotives for the K.Bay.Sts.B. Their names, in numerical order, were Paar, Hassfurt, Schweinfurt, Wurzburg, Pleinfeld, Wiesent, Schmutter, and Zusam.

Data from Christian Lindecke [] (visited 12 December 2003). (Reder, 1974, gives 685 sq ft for the heating surface area, but Lindecke says the A V used the A IV boiler, which is the value shown in the table. Also, Reder's weights -- 19,845 lb adhesion, 48,510 lb total -- are lower than Lindecke. Again the latter numbers are adopted. The difference may have lain in domeless (early) vs domed boilers (later)).

Christian Lindecke [] (visited 12 December 2003) for data. Following the success of the Type IIIa, Bad.St.B ordered eight more singles with larger boilers.
Christian Lindecke [] (visited 12 December 2003) for data. These were enlargements of Kessler's Type 1 b that came in two versions - five IIIa and four IIIb. The IIIb used a Meyer expansion valve gear arrangement featuring a fork link and two eccentric cams on each cylinder.
