The Norwegian State Railways XXVII Class are 0-6-0 side tank steam locomotives.



History[]

The XXVII class is a class of one side tank 0-6-0 locomotives. It was built in 1895 by Sächsische Maschinenfabrik (Formerly Richard Hartmann Locomotive Works) of Germany for the Urskog–Høland railway in Norway. In 1945 the Norwegian State Railways took over the Urskog–Høland railway and the single tank engine was classed XXVII. It continued to operate on the railway until 1954 when it was taken out of service.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]



Preservation[]

The only member of the class numbered two and named Urskog was preserved. It began operating on the track at the Norwegian State Railways museum in Hamar from 1962. It has continued to operate there ever since.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]
