Alsace-Lorraine A 1 was a class of two express passenger 2-4-0 steam locomotives of the Imperial Railways in Alsace-Lorraine (Reichseisenbahnen in Elaß-Lothringen) that were acquired in 1871. They were in service until they were retired in 1900 and 1904. They were only used for a short time in express train service. Their performance did not meet the requirements, as they could not accelerate the trains to the required speed. Therefore after 1872, the locomotives were only used in non-express passenger train service. They were withdrawn between 1900 and 1904.

  • Alsace-Lorraine A 1 was a class of two express passenger 2-4-0 steam locomotives of the Imperial Railways in Alsace-Lorraine (Reichseisenbahnen in Elaß-Lothringen) that were acquired in 1871. They were in service until they were retired in 1900 and 1904. After the Franco-Prussian War (1970–1871), the territory of Alsace and Lorraine was transferred from France to the newly-formed German Empire. With the acquisition, came the route network in Alsace Lorraine. However, the previous operator, the French Chemins de fer de l'Est had moved all its rolling stock west. The new owners had to procure a fleet of locomotives, carriages and wagons quickly. The two locomotives classified in the series A 1 were acquired in 1871 from the locomotive factory Carels Frères in Gent, Belgium. Similar locomotives had been built for the Belgian state railway (Chemins de fer de l'État Belge). These two locomotives acquired by the Reichseisenbahnen were originally intended for the État-Belge and should have received the numbers 145 and 146. With the Reichseisenbahnen the locomotives got the numbers 1 and 2 were named after rivers in Prussia. They were only used for a short time in express train service. Their performance did not meet the requirements, as they could not accelerate the trains to the required speed. Therefore after 1872, the locomotives were only used in non-express passenger train service. They were withdrawn between 1900 and 1904. (en)
  • Die zwei Dampflokomotiven der Reihe A 1 beschafften die Reichseisenbahnen in Elsaß-Lothringen 1871. Die Schnellzuglokomotiven waren bis 1904 im Einsatz. Mit der Übernahme des Streckennetzes in Elsaß-Lothringen war der Erwerb von Lokomotiven und Wagen erforderlich, da die Franzosen alle Fahrzeuge abgezogen hatten.Die beiden in die Reihe A 1 eingeordneten Lokomotiven wurden 1871 von der Lokomotivfabrik im belgischen Gent erworben. Gleichartige Lokomotiven waren für die belgische Staatsbahn Chemins de fer de l'État Belge gebaut worden. Auch die beiden Maschinen für die Reichseisenbahnen waren ursprünglich für die belgische Bahn vorgesehen und sollten die Nummern 145 und 146 erhalten. Bei den Reichseisenbahnen erhielten die Loks die Nummern 1 und 2 und die Namen PREGEL und WARTHE. Im Schnellzugverkehr wurden sie nur kurzzeitig eingesetzt. Die Leistungsfähigkeit der Lokomotiven entsprach nicht den Anforderungen. So konnten die Züge nicht in der gewünschten Geschwindigkeit befördert werden. Die Lokomotiven wurden deshalb ab 1872 nur noch im normalen Personenverkehr eingesetzt. Ihre Ausmusterung erfolgte zwischen 1900 und 1904. (de)
