The passenger train tender locomotive designated as class 77 by the Austrian Federal Railways was procured in several classes from 1913
(SB/kkStB class 629) until 1927. The Pacific type 2'C1' h2t steam locomotive was authorised for a maximum speed of 85 km/h. With full water
tanks and coal bunkers, a range of up to 200 kilometres was possible. Practically every train haulage operation in Austria was equipped with
class 77 locomotives at some point.
The 77.14, which was designed later, was delivered to BBÖ as the 629.29 with factory number 4379 by the StEG machine factory in 1922. After
an eventful fifty years, it was taken out of service in November 1972.
