Initially used in fast passenger trains from Stockholm to Rimbo and Hallstavik, they were moved to freight service after the Stockholm\u2013Rimbo Line was electrified in 1946. They hauled iron ore from Dannemora mine and transporter wagons from Uppsala, but were replaced by diesel locomotives during the 1950s. Two locomotives were leased at different times to the narrow-gauge network in V\u00e4sterg\u00f6tland. Their last service was between Rimbo and Hallstavik in 1960. SRJ 28 has been preserved.History[edit]Number 27\u201329, delivered in 1920 from Henschel & Son in Kassel, Germany, were the last steam locomotives ordered by SRJ.[2]:\u200a89\u200a Prices were low in Germany at the time, and several Swedish railways bought locomotives from Henschel and other German manufacturers.[2]:\u200a89\u200a The 2-6-2 locomotives had superheaters, relatively large bogie tenders, and were initially equipped with feedwater heaters, but the latter were removed as being too difficult to maintain.[2]:\u200a89\u200a They were the largest and heaviest steam locomotives ever built for the 891 mm gauge.[1]:\u200a219\u200a Intended for fast passenger trains, they were capable of considerably higher speeds than the official 69-kilometre-per-hour (43\u00a0mph) limit, but the railway itself only allowed 60\u00a0km\/h (37\u00a0mph).[2]:\u200a89\u200a       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4The locomotives were mostly used on from Stockholm to Rimbo and Hallstavik, occasionally from Rimbo to Norrt\u00e4lje,[3]:\u200a71\u200a although tank locomotives dominated on the latter line due to the turntable being too short for tender locomotives.[3]:\u200a181\u200a The trains between Stockholm and Rimbo sometimes had fourteen carriages, including direct carriages to Norrt\u00e4lje and Hallstavik.[3]:\u200a181\u200a Express trains were introduced in June 1928, running the 57 km between Rimbo and Stockholm in one hour and five minutes.[2]:\u200a36\u201337\u200a The purchase of the locomotives was partly due to an expected increase in traffic after Faringe\u2013Gimo J\u00e4rnv\u00e4g was opened, but they were hardly ever used on that railway before the Second World War, except in the very first train.[2]:\u200a89\u200aSRJ already operated electric local trains near Stockholm, and wartime difficulties with obtaining coal made them extend the electrification,[2]:\u200a76\u200a reaching Rimbo in 1946 and Norrt\u00e4lje in 1949.[2]:\u200a79\u200a The need for large passenger train locomotives was now drastically reduced.[1]:\u200a219\u200a SRJ considered rebuilding number 27\u201329 to 2-6-4 tank locomotives, and NOHAB offered to do so at a cost of 34,500 Swedish crowns for one locomotive or 89,400 crowns for all three, but it was never done.[2]:\u200a88\u200a Instead they were moved to freight service between Rimbo and Hallstavik and iron ore trains between Dannemora and Hargshamn.[1]:\u200a219\u200a They were still used in some passenger trains, including a Sunday evening train from Gimo to Rimbo that sometimes had ten bogie carriages.[3]:\u200a84\u200a  SRJ 28 in Uppsala in 2004.At this time V\u00e4sterg\u00f6tland\u2013G\u00f6teborgs J\u00e4rnv\u00e4gar (VGJ) were in need of more locomotives on its large network in V\u00e4sterg\u00f6tland.[1]:\u200a274\u200a SRJ 28 was leased to VGJ in 1947\u20131948; after returning to SRJ it was overhauled and equipped with roller bearings in the tender bogies.[2]:\u200a88\u200a SRJ 27 was leased to the Swedish State Railways (SJ) in 1952\u20131955 for use on the now nationalized VGJ network.[1]:\u200a221\u200a While in V\u00e4sterg\u00f6tland it received a six-wheeled tender from an SJ locomotive, B2p number 3105,[1]:\u200a266\u200a and this tender was also used on SRJ until number 27 was scrapped in 1962.[1]:\u200a221\u200a       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Transporter wagons were introduced in freight trains from Uppsala to Norrt\u00e4lje and Hallstavik in 1955, enabling direct transports to the normal-gauge network.[3]:\u200a79\u200a This caused a large increase in freight traffic via Uppsala, and SRJ 27\u201329 were generally used in these trains.[3]:\u200a79\u200a Smaller steam locomotives hauling trains with transporter wagons were prone to get stuck at a gradient near Faringe.[3]:\u200a192\u200a Diesel locomotives were however introduced during the 1950s, and steam locomotives were hardly ever seen on the Uppsala\u2013Rimbo line after 1958,[3]:\u200a83\u200a but SRJ 28 was used on the line to Hallstavik until the autumn of 1960.[3]:\u200a84\u200a That locomotive was then preserved in Faringe[3]:\u200a87\u200a before being transferred to the Swedish Railway Museum in 1970.[1]:\u200a221\u200a It was returned to Faringe in 1987 on loan to the heritage railway Upsala-Lenna Jernv\u00e4g.[3]:\u200a107\u200a The other two locomotives were scrapped in 1962.[1]:\u200a221\u200aReferences[edit]^ a b c d e f g h i j Karlsson, Lars Olov (2011).
