The prototype, the 'Adler' steam locomotive, was built in 1835 by the British locomotive manufacturer Robert Stephenson & Co. in Newcastle upon Tyne. On December 7, 1835, the locomotive operated the first official train run on the railway line between Nuremberg and Fürth, the first German railway with steam traction for public passenger transport. The locomotive had a 1A1 wheel arrangement and hauled coaches of various classes. The original 'Adler' was retired from service in 1857. The historic train is considered an important symbol of the beginning of the railway era in Germany.
