Between 1899 and 1905, the Bavarian State Railway ordered a total of 83 2-6-0 freight locomotives for lowland lines. They were built by Krauss and Maffei and were designated C VI. They were two-cylinder compounds with cylinder diameters of 500 and 740 mm, respectively. Between 1907 and 1909, 37 more were delivered by Krauss which had only slight changes. According to the new system these were called G 3/4 N, what stood for goods, three out of four axles driven and saturated steam.
After World War I, a number came to neighboring states. So these became ČSD class 334.6, PKP Ti101 and État Belge Nos. 7372 to 7393 (with gaps). 96 of 120 stayed in Germany and were included in Reichsbahn class 54 in 1925. There the C VI became class 5413, while the newer G 3/4 became class 5414. They were retired by 1935. ![](./images/status_hasBaseData.png)
