To meet the increased demands of passenger and express train service, the Prussian State Railways developed the P8 passenger locomotive. By 1923, over 3,700 examples of this versatile, triple-coupled machine had been built by German factories alone. The steam locomotive, later designated Class 38 10–40, produced 880 kW, weighed approximately 130 tons including the tender and full stores, and was capable of speeds of 100 km/h forward and 50 km/h reverse. The repainting of the DRG's large locomotive fleet to the new standard black/red color scheme naturally took a long time. Accordingly, until around 1930, many locomotives were presented in the olive green/reddish brown/black color scheme that had been in use until 1926, but had already been re-signed.
