Slovak Railways 310.433


This 0-6-0 tank loco was built by Mavag in Budapest in 1896 and worked on the Košice - Bohumín railway before WW1. Its last usage by the Czechoslovak Railways (CSD) was in Leopoldov and Prievidza. It then worked at the sugar factory of Pohronsky Ruskov until 1971. Students from Bratislava saved it from being scrapped, and in 1981 it was operable again. Complete restoration was carried out in Vrútky.
