Prototype: Even as production started on the S 10, Henschel were given an order for the manufacture of a compound locomotive, which promised to deliver lower coal consumption. This locomotive, classified as the S 10.1, was not based on the S 10 and had a new design. The four-cylinder compound group was of the de Glehn type, which meant that the outside cylinders, set well to the rear, drove the second coupled axle and the inside cylinders drove the first coupled axle. The locomotives were larger and more powerful than the S 10 and, thanks to their compound groups, also more economical.
