DetailsThe Type T 9.3 tank locomotives were versatile engines used for both passenger and goods trains, operating at speeds up to 60 km/h, later increased to 65 km/h. In 1925, the Deutsche Reichsbahn-Gesellschaft (DRG) incorporated a significant number of these locomotives into its fleet, classifying them under the designations 91.3-18 and 91.20 according to the official drawing plans. Following World War II, the Type T 9.3 locomotives were gradually withdrawn from scheduled service, with the Deutsche Bundesbahn (DB) completing the process by 1964 and the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DR) finalising it by 1971. These locomotives played an important role in early 20th-century rail operations, renowned for their reliability and adaptability. - Versatile Usage: Served in both passenger and freight services with operational speeds up to 65 km/h.
