The Bavarian Class C , later C II , was a German steam locomotive with the Bavarian Eastern Railway (Bayerische Ostbahn ).
These engines were the first six-coupled vehicles in Bavaria with external frames . In addition, they had Stephenson valve gear and, because the final axle was driven, a very long connecting rod with a Hall crank (Hallscher Kurbel ). Because of its large wheel diameter, it could also be used to haul passenger trains .
The locomotives were equipped with 3 T 9 tenders .
