Steam Locomotive G5.4 K.P.E.V.
Shortly before the turn of the century, the six-coupled locomotive had
also reached its performance limits in Prussia. The growing number of
passenger trains and their increasing speed lead to fewer and fewer
routes for slow freight trains on frequently used lines. For this reason,
ways of speeding up freight trains were sought, which was only possible
however with more powerful locomotives. However, more power could not
be achieved on the six-coupled running gear, so that a way out was sought
with a leading running axle. With the “Hanover 800”, Vulcan delivered the
first G5.1 in 1892, which essentially had the two-cylinder engine of the G4,
supplemented with a leading Adams axle. The boiler to be installed on this
1
was dimensioned more generously, so that the grate area was increased
by 50% compared with the G4. Already in 1896, the G5.1 was converted
to a saturated steam compound engine and purchased in parallel with the
G5.1 with the designation G5.2. As the running characteristics of the Adams
axle were not satisfactory, it was replaced with a Krauss-Helmholtz bogie
with which the compound engine was equipped from 1901 onwards and
designated as G5.4. The “twin engines“only benefited from this measure
from 1903 onwards. However, the maximum speed of all locomotives was
65 kph. Although the saving on coal of the compound engine was not that
high and they were therefore preferably to be used in “coal-remote” divisions, they were most frequently purchased by the divisions of the KPEV. Up
to 1910, BMAG, Borsig, Grafenstaden, Hanomag, Henschel, Hohenzollern
and Humboldt delivered 780 of these locomotives. The G5.4 were used
in almost all Prussian divisionsstrongholds with more than 100 engines
were for example Altona, Halle and Hanover. They were mainly used for
“fast freight transport”. However, there were also scheduled service pulling
passenger trains. This is mentioned separately in many stock lists because
the locomotives had to have a compressed air brake for this. In contrast,
the freight trains still had handbrakes at this time. In addition to the KPEV,
the “Royal Military Railway” (1), the MFFE (9), the port railway Frankfurt
(3) and the LBE (3) had locomotives of class G5.4. A great decimation of
the stock was carried out by the Treaty of Versailles – of the G5.4, Prussia
alone had to surrender 368 to the victorious powers of the First World War.
The largest contingents were given to Poland (191 engines) and Belgium
(100). The renumbering plan of 11.12.1925 contained 281 G5.4 of which
218 engines were definitely renumbered as BR 54.8-10 in 1926.

General assembly and safety information
• These operating instructions describe all work steps necessary for
maintenance and repair. Please read these operating instructions
carefully before you start with your work.
• In the case of incorrect handling of electrical components, they may
be destroyed. Please ask your specialist dealer to help with the
necessary work (e.g. changing circuit boards).
• In the case of maintenance work, the disassembly is described below,
to re-assemble the tractor reverse the work steps.
• The maintenance work described below is virtually identical for direct
current and alternating current models. If there are any differences
these will be pointed out specifically.
• All cables and connection wires installed in this product may not be
inserted in a mains socket. Danger!

Removing the locomitive from the packaging (Fig. 1)
Open package. Take out plastics protecting package with engine and
put it down on a table or similar item. Loosen latch (1), fold away lid
and side parts of protecting package, take out engine.

Fitting additional parts (Fig. 2)
Accessory parts have been loosely enclosed in the packaging.
1 = 2 x Bow coupling
2 = 2 x Coupler hook
3 = 2 x Hook imitation coupling
4 = 2 x Original coupling
4 = 1 x Heating hose front (only model 40454)
5 = 1 x Heating hose back (only model 40454)
6 = 2 x Brake hose left (only model 40454)
7 = 2 x Brake hose right (only model 40454)
8 = 2 x Westinghouse brake (only model 40450)
If parts contained in the setting-up bag for showcase models are
fitteed, the engine is no longer suitable for operation on tracks.

2. Dismantling the locomotive casing (Fig. 5)
Undo the screws (81) on the underside of the running gear and carefully
remove the locomotive housing (22) from above.
Important! (Fig. 5a)
The reversing rods (10 and 149) are connected to the running gear and
are inserted into the reversing lever and driver‘s cab respectively. When
dismantling the locomotive housing the reversing rod (10) must be
pulled out of the reversing lever.
When assembling the locomotive, ensure that the reversing rods (10
and 149) are mounted in the corresponding holes in the reversing lever
and driver‘s cab respectively.
3. Dismantling the tender casing (Fig. 6)
Remove toolbox (185, only model 40454). Unscrew the screws (186) on
the underneath of the tender casing and lift the tender casing (108) up
carefully.
4. Exchanging the motherboard (Fig. 6)
Remove the tender casing, see point 3.
Remove blind socket (170) for direct current model DC or digital decoder (169) for alternating current version. Unscrew attachment screws
(213).
Remove all cables by pulling off the cabel lug (171).
Please mark where the individual cables were fixed.
Lift out motherboard (172).
5. Exchanging the motor (Fig. 5)
Remove locomotive casing, see point 2.
Unscrew the screws (94 and 97 ) of the motor holder (95 and 96).
Remove motor holders, lift motor (69) carefully and unsolder the cable
to the motor.
6. Exchanging the digital decoder (Fig. 6)
Remove the tender casing, see point 3.
Pull out digital decoder (169) and insert new unit.
7. Exchanging traction wheels (Fig. 5)
Unsrew the srew (114) with the special tool, see page 6. Push the coupling rod (115 or 141) to the side and replace the traction tyres (105).
8. Exchanging the pick-up in the AC version (Fig. 5)
Unscrew the attachment screw (131) of the pick-up (130) and remove
pick-up.
9. Maintenance work on the wheel sets and gears
(Fig. 5)
When performing maintenance work on the wheel sets, the coupling
rods and the gears, the whole chassis must be dismantled. We would
remind you to note exactly where and how each part was assembled
before dismantling the chassis.
The installation position can be seen in the spare parts chart on pages
13 to 16. BRAWA is not liable for damage which occurs due to improper
work on construction parts.

10. Converting to digital operation
DC version
Remove tender housing (108), pull off dummy connector (170) and
insert digital decoder (169).
Please consult the installation instructions issued by the decoder
manufacturer for correct installation of the digital decoder and its
insert direction.
AC version
The premium digital decoder (169) is standard for the alternating current (AC) locomotives models. The decoder independently identifies the
operation type (analog/digital). Please refer to the enclosed installation
and operation instructions “Premium Digital Decoder” in the event that
the decoder needs to be reprogrammed.
The decoder is set to address 03 in the factory.
