Quality 0.00 · 0 views · Updated 14 days ago

The Prussian G 12 CFOA-type variant was a class of German 2-10-0 locomotives used by the Prussian state railways. The locomotives of this type were originally an order from the Ottoman Ministry of War, and fifteen examples were intended for the Chemins de fer Ottomans d'Anatolie (CFOA). Due to the course of the war, only five locomotives could initially be delivered by Henschel to the CFOA. The other five locomotives went to the German Military Railways with the consent of the customer. They were assigned to the Military Directorate General in Brussels (Militär-Generaldirektionsbezirk Brüssel) as G 12 numbers 5551 to 5555. To replace these five locomotives, Henschel delivered another five locomotives to the CFOA in 1918. The remaining five locomotives ordered for the Ottoman Empire were not made.
