Serbian State 4-4-0 Locomotives in Yugoslavia


Class Details by Steve Llanso of Sweat House Media

Class 101 (Locobase 1722)

Data from A[nthony] E[dward] Durrant, The Steam Locomotives of Eastern Europe (Newton Abbot:David & Charles, 1966).(Thanks to Teemu Koivumaki for his 18 March 2023 email supplying the manufacturers' information.) Works numbers were Esslingen 2200-2203 in 1885 and, 2313, 2320-2322 in 1889. Hartmann works numbers were 1881-1882 in 1892, ARAD works numbers 67-70 in 1900, Haine St Pierre works numbers were 951-954 in 1908.

Originally built for the Serbian State Railways and the first "purely passenger" locomotives. Delivered by Esslingen, Haine St Pierre (works numbers were 854-855), Hartmann, and Weitzer (of Arad) works numbers were 67, 69-70. Five survived as JDZ 101.001-05 in 1933.
