E-u N 684-37: the steam locomotive of innovator.
E-u ("povered E") is the 0-5-0 steam locomotive, designed in 1926 by BMZ (Bryansk Engineering Works), in Russia. E-u was the favorite of the engine drivers, because it was the powerful, reliability and simplicity of nursing and repairing.
In 1935 the 25-years-old engine driver Pyotr Krivonos of the Slavyansk depot established the record of the productivity on the steam locomotive E-u N 684-37. It was a hard problem, because in 1935 Russian railway freight cars had no such reliable brakes and couplings. The preparation of this record has given to railway engineers a new knowlegdes. This knowlegdes helped to enlarge productivity in all the Russian railroads. The Government bestowed Pyotr Krivonos an Order of Lenin upon (one of the highest State awards in ex-USSR).

Technical data of the E-u: Axle formula 0-5-0. Full weidght 83 t. Axle load 16,3 t./axle. Max. traction power 26,1 t. Max. speed 65 km/h. Full lenght with tender 20,5 m. Axle base 5,78 m. Vapour pressure 12 kg. on square cm. Vapour expenditure near 7...10 kg/h.p. in a hour. Power near 1000 h.p. Efficiency near 9 per cent.
