The BHÉV's class LVII locomotive of road number 83, better known as the Tiger
Named after the monumental German tank, it deserves its name: it started out as a locomotive, only later on in its developement did the designers add a few banks in its chassis, so it could serve as a railcar when pulling a passenger train. It started service during WWII.
