Summary

Description
English: Standard gauge steam locomotive FS 740.121 at the railway station in Postojna, Slovenia.

Length: 19.9 m, steam pressure: 12 bar, diameter of driven wheels: 1370 mm, mass: 116.6 t, power: 720 kW, max. speed: 65 km/h.

The locomotive was produced by Officine Mechaniche Napoli (Italy) in 1914, serial nr. 563. In total, 470 locomotives of this series were produced and are believed to be one of the best Italian made machines. Between both world wars (when western Slovenia was a part of Italy) these locomotives were in use on sections between Trieste, Postojna and Rijeka and in Istria. After the WW2 one of the locomotives (not this one) was incorporated into the Yugoslav Railways' rolling stock and assigned the number JŽ 25-035. This locomotive was acquired (exchange) from Italy in 1982 and exhibited at the Postojna train station. It was assigned the invalid Yugoslav number JŽ 740.121 which can still be seen on its left side.

Lokomotivo je leta 1914 izdelala italijanska tovarna Officine Mechaniche Napoli pod tovarniško št. 563. Skupno je bilo izdelanih 470 primerkov te serije, ki velja za enega najboljših italijanskih strojev. Med obema svetovnima vojnama (ko je Italija okupirala zahodno Slovenijo) so lokomotive te serije vozile tudi na progah med Trstom, Postojno in Reko ter po Istri. Po 2. sv. vojni so JŽ eno teh lokomotiv (ne to na fotografiji) vključile v svoj vozni park in ji dodelile številko JŽ 25-035. Ta lokomotiva je leta 1982 bila pridobljena z izmenjavo iz Italije in razstavljena na postojnski postaji. Takrat so ji dodelili neveljavno številko JŽ 740.121, ki jo je še vedno moč videti na levem boku.
