Saxon M I TV

The Saxon class M I TV was a class of two German 0-4-4-0 Meyer tank locomotives built for the Royal Saxon State Railways (German: Königlich Sächsischen Staatseisenbahnen, K.Sä.St.E.)

In 1890, the Sächsische Maschinenfabrik in Chemnitz developed a Günther-Meyer articulated locomotive for operation on the winding branch lines of the Ore Mountains.

Similar locomotives were procured for the Saxon narrow-gauge railways as class IV K from 1892.

The two M I TV locomotives were withdrawn from service in 1922, and the Deutsche Reichsbahn gave them no new numbers.

The bogies were connected by a coupling iron in order to reduce any counter-rotating movements.
