LVCI 79-90 were a group of 2-4-0 steam locomotives of the LVCI, a private company of Austria-Hungary. The 12 Locomotives were supplied by Koechlin in 1858. They were very similar to LCVI 51–60.

Ownership changes

[edit]

The Südbahn took 10 of these 12 Locomotives, calling them Group SB 5. The "Ariosto" and "Raffaello" remained with the LVCI. They later became SFAI 381–382, RM 2019-2020 and FS 1181–1182.
