Unspecified 0-4-0 Locomotives in Poland
Class Details by Steve Llanso of Sweat House Media
Class Balziel/TKb (Locobase 4778)
One of a series of Polish industrial locomotives built after World War II. This model came in three gauge sizes -- standard, metre, and 90 cm. It was built only in small numbers, possibly because it wasn't very powerful. Rated at 200 hp, its max speed was a bracing 35 kmh (21.7 mph) although a full load could drag it down to 30 kmh (18.6 mph).

Class Hutnik (Locobase 4808)
One of a series of Polish industrial locomotives built after World War II. Like the Baziel, the Hutnik was built only in small numbers, possibly because it wasn't very powerful. Rated at 70 hp, its max speed is listed at 15 km/h (9.6 mph).

Class Rys/T49 (Locobase 4809)
One of a series of Polish industrial locomotives built after World War II. According to [], the Rys was based on Henschel's Fabia design (see Locobase 5968.)
