Caption | The conspicuous "outgrowths" of the two locomotive chimneys are called "Kobel" in Austria. Kobel chimneys were intended to reduce or even eliminate flying sparks. This is an issue with steam locomotives anyway, but especially with poor coal and peat firing, as was common in AT for some stretches and times. |
Caption (German) | Die auffälligen "Auswüchse" der beiden Lokomotivkamine nennen sich in Österreich "Kobel". Kobelschornsteine sollten den Funkenflug vermindern oder gar eliminieren. Dies ist bei Dampfloks ohnehin ein Thema, dies aber insbesondere bei schlechter Kohle- und bei Torffeuerung, wie sie in AT strecken- und zeitweise üblich war |
