One of the big issues with high-speed steam traction is the control of the unbalanced masses. The German class 18 201, currently the fastest operating steam loco in the world, is limited to 100 mph for that, although it could go 115 mph and even beyond.
In the early 1940īs, Deutsche Reichsbahn developed a steam loco employing piston engines in a V set-up for each axle. The steam motorised locomotive no. 19 1001 was a German, express train steam locomotive with the Deutsche Reichsbahn. In 1941 Henschel delivered this fully streamlined trials locomotive with factory number 25000. The proven method of a single-axle drive to each axle used on electric locomotives was adopted for this locomotive. The four driving axles were therefore each driven by a separate steam-driven motor. On regular test runs, this loco reached speeds up to 120 mph, but it was never tested for speed, due to the war. It was believed to be capable of speeds way beyond the 126 mph mark. During its short service life, the loco was compelled to pull freight trains. At the end of the war, it was shipped to the US, and was scrapped in 1951. It never ran in the US. -------------------- Never too old to have a happy childhood! .......... ..........![]() Don't put an age limit on your dreams! |
