WHAT IF...? The Bavarian S 3/6, often referred to as the "Queen of steam locomotives", bore the brunt of the German express train traffic until the introduction of class 01. Not only did it continue to be built until after 1931, but also because it could cope with long runs that class 01 could not do without being "slimmed-down". And if anyone thinks that a Bavarian locomotive only ran in Bavaria during the Bundesbahn era, they are mistaken. The Bavarian locomotives hauled pretty much all the trains that belonged to the crème de la crème. Although most of the S 3/6s of series a to c were scrapped in 1950, it seems realistic that one of these legendary express locomotives, like some of its younger sisters, got hold of a DB-Keks and continued to be cherished as an irreplaceable machine by a committed locomotive crew.
