The physically identical Palatine and Bavarian Class R 4/4 engines of the

carrying axles. The first nine machines were built for the Palatinate Railway

(Pfalzbahn) in 1913 and 1915 as the Palatine Class R 4, the remainder from 1918 to 1925 as Bavarian R 4/4 engines.

The first nine machines were built as the Palatinate R 4/4 in 1913 and 1915 for the Palatinate Railway, the remainder in years 1918/19 and 1924/25 as the Bavarian R 4/4. Structurally they were similar to the

Sand dome and steam dome formed a single structural unit. The locomotives could haul up to 1,000 tons on the level. On a gradient of 5‰ and a load of 246 tons a speed of 45 km/h was achieved.^[1] The last series differed from its predecessors in that the arrangement of the domes and the water box was changed.^[2]

In 1925 seven Palatine R 4/4 with operating numbers 92 2001 to 92 2007 and all the Bavarian R 4/4 with operating numbers 92 2008 to 92 2049 were incorporated by the

Deutsche Reichsbahn into their numbering plan as Class 92.20.^[1]^[2]

The first Palatine engines began to be taken out of service from the mid-1930s; the last ones in the 1950s.[1] In 1962 the last one, No. 2024, stabled in Nuremberg was retired.^[2]
