Piraeus, Athens & Peloponnese 2-4-0 Locomotives in Greece

Class A1/B11 - 101 (Locobase 1522)

Data from A E Durrant, Locomotives of Eastern Europe (New York: Augustus M Kelley, Publishers, 1966), pp. 57, 150. Works numbers were 1415-1418 in 1883, 1419-1421 in 1884.

Durrant wrote that these little tanks were obtained for "train services proper" (as opposed to tram power or construction engines). Their frames lay inside the drivers, but the cylinders drove directly from outside mounts.

Class B151 (Locobase 1523)

Data from A E Durrant, The Steam Locomotives of Eastern Europe (Newton Abbot, Devonshire: David & Charles, 1966), p. 58, 60 and class info from [], edited by Nick Sharounis and John Zartaloodes. Works numbers were 11132-11136 in 1912.

These were later renumbered Bs151-155 when the SPAP was absorbed by the SEK.

In what appears to be very small engines, Henschel managed to install superheaters and fit piston valves to handle the hotter steam Their acquisition was part of a update plan that proved satisfactory enough to render any new purchases unnecessary until 1925.
