In 1881, the Royal Saxon State Railway (K.Sä.Sts.B.) opened the first of a total of 30 narrow-gauge railroads. The majority of the 561 km long network was built with a 750 mm gauge. The steep and winding lines soon became a challenge for many locomotive builders: The II K double locomotive imported from England, the III K with the Klose engine, the articulated IV K Meyer locomotive or the V K with Klien-Lindner hollow axles had maintenance-intensive engine designs.

It was not until the VI K, procured in 1918 for the former army field railroads, that powerful and - with laterally displaceable wheelsets of the Gölsdorf system - simply constructed 750 mm engines were introduced. Signs of wear forced the DR to modernize and reboiler some of the locomotives starting in 1963. Nevertheless, the VI K disappeared from service in 1975, not least because of the high axle loads. Today, the 1'E 1' unit locomotives procured by the DRG or DR dominate above all.
