Discover the Prussian T 11 steam locomotive, a classic of German railway engineering.
Built by Union and Borsig between 1903 and 1910, this 2-6-0 Whyte notation locomotive was designed for efficiency and power.
With a top speed of 80 km/h and a power output of 382 kW, the Prussian T 11 is a testament to early 20th-century steam technology.
