IdolThese largest German cogwheel steam locomotives were the last redesign of the Royal Wrttemberg State Railways. Their production was initially delayed by the 1stWorld war. However, they could then be ordered through the newly created DEUTSCHE REICHSBAHN in 1921 and the first two, built in 1922, were put into operation in May 1923 after a few inflation-related delays. In 1925, 97 503 and 504 followed. This meant that there were sufficient machines for operation on the Honau – Lichtenstein cog railway to replace the previous locomotives of the Wrttemberg class Fz. The locomotives were located in the then independent workshop in Reutlingen.At the end of the war in March 1945, the Reutlingen depot was completely destroyed by air raids. The locomotives were then relocated to the Tbingen depot, but were still serviced and used by the Reutlingen locomotive station, which was rebuilt from the rubble on a smaller scale. Since the locomotives were needed even longer in the post-war period, the 97 502 in the Esslingen machine factory was first extensively modernized in 1953-54 according to plans drawn up by the Federal Central Railway Office (BZA) in Minden. 97 504 followed in 1957, but in a somewhat slimmed-down form for cost reasons. For 97 501 only the enlarged coal box, the modernized change slide and a couple of newer unit feed valves were possible.Due to a change in the mode of operation on the cogwheel railway with line locomotives that remained on the train and had to work uphill, the need for gearwheel locomotives was reduced and the 97 503 coming to HU in 1957 was the first to be retired. The other three remained in service for 5 years until the summer timetable began in 1962. Then the steam locomotives were replaced by gear rail buses of the VT97 series. On 26.May was the last scheduled day of operation for a 97.5. In August 97 501 and 504 were the last to be retired.Due to the gearwheels projecting downwards into the clearance profile, the gearwheel locomotives could only run on certain routes that had previously been checked for freedom of movement (Reutlingen – Lichtenstein – Mnsingen – Ulm, Tbingen – Reutlingen – Esslingen). In Reutlingen itself, the cogwheel locomotives were also used occasionally in shunting. Auxiliary and industrial tracks were also prepared here for gear locomotives.Usual operation on the gear trainWhen a train from the direction of Reutlingen arrived in Honau, the cogwheel locomotive sat behind it and pushed the train to the Lichtenstein station located 179m higher. The locomotive then moved there and continued the train towards Mnsingen. If the train was heavier than 125t, it had to be divided in Honau and either transported upwards with a second gear locomotive at a visual distance to the first train or initially pushed into the siding provided for this in Honau. The special signaling provided by the locomotive lanterns was placed in the existing siding and taken by the cogwheel locomotive in a second tour.Even on the descent, a cogwheel locomotive always had to be on the valley side. However, trains with a continuous (Hik or KE) brake 250t were allowed to bring the cogwheel locomotive down with the help of the counter-pressure brakes.
