# List of East German Deutsche Reichsbahn locomotives and railbuses

This article contains a list of locomotives and railbuses of the Deutsche Reichsbahn (East Germany) (DR) according to the numbering system introduced by the DR on 1 July 1970.
Following the October 1990 reunification of Germany, the DR's locomotives and railbuses were incorporated (and renumbered) on 1 January 1992 into the classification system of the West German Deutsche Bundesbahn (DB), originally issued on 1 January 1968, in preparation for the merger of the two German national railways that took place on 1 January 1994. This renumbering was also described as the 'locomotive classification of the Deutsche Bahn' as a number of changes and additions to the DB's 1968 system were needed.
Classification before 1970: see also DRG classification system.

## Steam locomotives

In the DR numbering plan the following additional practices were common:
* xx.6xxx locomotives, that originated from former private railways.
From 1970 the following sub-classes for all steam locomotives were introduced, the locomotive number always being four digits long:
* xx.0 locomotives with oil-firing
* xx.1–8 locomotives with grate firing
* xx.9 locomotives with coal dust firing
