Swedish Steamengine 1306 at Nora

In order for SJ to better utilize spare parts in the 1910s, and to get a larger, fast-track tank stop for traffic on lanes outside the main lantern, 1917 put together a latch type consisting of: The boiler from the E-locomotive, B-locomotive gear, running boggie from A-lok and running axle from A-lok. The result was a big tanker with a weight in service of up to 80 tonnes.

 

The locomotive was very successful, and the 5 locomotives proved not only to work well in passenger trains, but also in heavy freight trains and fast mixed trains. With its built-in cabin, the room also fitted well in Norrland's harsh winter cold. The club's 1306 final, first ended in Malmö, but moved after three years to Falköping to serve together with two turf-powdered sisters. After stationing in both Stockholm, Gothenburg and Kristinehamn, the 1957 locality in Kristianstad ended up dragging passenger trains on Blekinge Coastal Railways. In 1962 the box was put, preserved and transferred to the reserve reserve as many other locomotives. When the SJK in 1971 decided to buy a lane for its delivery, it was a requirement that the lorry would have large storage, high sth and be easy to handle with external machinery.

 

The election fell on the S2-type as the office was now called, and the election was between 1306 and 1309. 1306 in Hästveda's final figures were considered to be in the best condition, and the box was bought by the association in 1972. After some cosmetic work at the office, the SJ Sb 1306 again could pull the train On SJ's lines in SJK's exit train. Initially, they also had their own wagons, but they were sold to various museum associations in the late 1970s, and SJK instead borrowed carriages from SJ when carrying out trips.

 

The lack of roof over the head made the situation unsustainable, and temporary solutions such as the final figures in Månsbo winter 1980/81 became less suitable for the big and heavy box and Sbn was deposited into mfGDJ in Falun. The lock was mostly shut down and after a failed attempt to put the booth into operation in the late 80's when a number of little buckets ran leaked, SJK moved in 1989 to the deposit of the NBVJ office. In Nora, the works started immediately, and after almost two years the box could be burned outside the workshop after, inter alia, the replacement of the entire tubing.

 

Since then, the box has been used in the association's traffic on both its own track and SJ's lines. Due to the large storage area of the building, it is easy to drive Nora-Örebro-Nora without having to drain water during the trip. The highest permitted speed even in reverse makes it unnecessary to turn the seat. In addition to normal maintenance, the lock has no major flaws in the service of the association, although a gearbox in the firebox has begun to show some signs of fatigue, because the box is running a bit more sparingly today than before. The box was bought in 2003 by NBVJ from SJK.
