Class (BR) 042

The German Class 41 steam locomotives were standard goods train engines (Einheitslokomotiven) operated by the Deutsche Reichsbahn (DRB) and built from 1937–1941. From October 1938, the first full-scale production Class 41 locomotives were ordered by the now renamed (since February 1937) Deutsche Reichsbahn (DRB). All the well-known locomotive manufacturers in Germany participated in the building of the locomotives, including BMAG, Borsig, Maschinenfabrik Esslingen, Henschel & Sohn, Arnold Jung Lokomotivfabrik, Krauss-Maffei, Krupp, Orenstein & Koppel and Schichau.

The Deutsche Bundesbahn changed to a new numbering system at a time were every BR 42 and 42.90 went allready out of service. This made it possible to use the number 042 which was used für BR 41 with a "Oil Tender".
The BR 042 is not the same as a BR 42 which is a different Steamer!
