The Franz Krull Sk-class is a class of steam locomotive built by the Franz Krull metal works of Tallinn, Estonia between 1931-1940.[1]
The Sk were
narrow-gauged and used oil shale as fuel, since it is the primary energy source in Estonia. A total of 16 units were produced, of which none has survived.[1] The last Sk, Sk-156, was scrapped in 1980 in Beloretsk, Russia
, where it was actively used until scrapping.
