The prototype: Saxon IV K of the Deutsche Reichsbahn
The class IV K was originally built between 1892 and 1921 by the Sächsische Maschinenfabrik in Chemnitz and developed into the most built narrow gauge locomotive in Germany.

The IV K served both freight and passenger traffic and was later taken over by the Deutsche Reichsbahn, which modernized it in Era IV.
The locomotive 99 1561-2 is one of the modernized variants and was distinguished by technical developments such as the conversion to oil firing. It was used on various lines in the Erzgebirge and other narrow-gauge regions of Germany.
