Steam traction was the predominant form of motive power used by the Deutsche Reichsbahn (East Germany), Deutsche Reichsbahn on its narrow-gauge railways. For certain duties diesel locomotives were also used, albeit these were usually second-hand or rebuilt engines. Locomotives with a gauge of were classified as Kö 6001ff. and locomotives as Kö 6501ff.. From 1970 they were incorporated into Class ''100'' without regard to their gauge. This applied to all ''Kleinlokomotiven'' and they were given serial numbers from 901ff.. Due to the risk of confusion, in 1973 the narrow-gauge diesel locomotives were reclassified to 199. In addition, from 1992 they became DBAG Class 399; and once more the gauge was deducible from the serial number as follows: = 399.1, = 399.6, = 399.7. 1949–1970 Heeresfeldbahnlokomotive HF 130 C Two former three-axled ''Heeresfeldbahnlokomotive, Heeresfeldbahnloks'' of Type HF 130 C were refurbished by the DR for various narrow-gauge lines. ...
