  • PKP Class Pt31 is a Polish steam locomotive of Polskie Koleje Państwowe, designed for hauling heavy long-distance passenger trains, built in 1932-1940. The designation stood for fast passenger (P) 2-8-2 (t) steam locomotive designed in 1931.
  • The locomotive was entirely Polish design, designed in Fablok in Chrzanów. Polish Ministry of Transport ordered two classes of fast passenger locomotives in Polish factories to compare their merits. Fablok 2-8-2 design was to be named Pt29, but the design was delayed and accepted on in 1931, thus becoming Pt31. Three prototypes were built in 1932 and successfully competed with 4-8-2 Pu29 locomotive – both were similar, but more compact Pt31 better suited Polish turntables. From 1934, a series production for the PKP followed, and by the outbreak of World War II in 1939, 98 were made, numbered Pt31-1 to 98. Further twelve were completed in 1940 under German occupation. Pt31 became the strongest machines hauling long-distance passenger trains in Poland. A maximum speed was 110 km/h (68 mph). It could achieve at least 105 km/h with a train of 600 tonnes (590 long tons; 660 short tons), or could haul the train of 810 tonnes (800 long tons; 890 short tons) with lower speed. After World War II, Poland reclaimed 65 locomotives, receiving new numbers Pt31-1 to 66 (number 46 was mistakenly assigned to Pu29-3). Before that, they temporarilly served in Czechoslovakia as class 488, Austria, Hungary and both German countries. Three locomotives of wartime production remained on Austrian railways as ÖBB class 919 until 1961, and several broad-gauge remained in the Soviet Union. These locomotives were used until 1979 in Poland. Only two were preserved, in non-working condition. A post-war development was PKP class Pt47.
  • This SLW RFQ series production is released with the well-known modelling skills by Marcin Skalbania and enhanced textures powered by Zato Visual Works. Interactivity enabled with coal and water consumption and loading in the tender unit.
  • Models for TRS22 and TRS Plus. Please, check our technical note on our models and previous versions of Trainz here.
  • Locomotive+tender and dependencies for them included except for the TRS22/Plus built-in ones.
  • New kuid #’s to diferentiate these assets from previous released ones.
