DSB steam locomotive E 991 In 1937, due to the increased volume of passenger train traffic, the Danish State Railways (DSB) acquired eleven Pacific express train locomotives of the SJ series F from the Swedish State Railways (SJ), which had become superfluous there due to increasing electrification. These first Scandinavian Pacifics were built between 1914 and 1916 by Nydqvist & Holm as four-cylinder superheated steam compound locomotives with Heusinger controls based on the Vauclain system, in which all cylinders were in a row. Both the outer low-pressure and inner high-pressure cylinders acted on the second coupling gear set. On the top of the boiler, both the steam dome and the sandpit were located under a common panel. In Denmark, the machines were first refurbished in the DSB cent.
