The growing long-distance travel in Germany, line expansions, and shortened travel times meant that the two-cylinder express train locomotives of the 01 and 03 series were pushed to their performance limits more often than before. In 1936, it was decided to purchase newly developed three-cylinder express train locomotives, in keeping with the spirit of the times with streamlined fairing.

Of the 60 locomotives actually built, only 45 survived the war. The Deutsche Bundesbahn was able to add 26 of them to its fleet. Quite different from what was originally planned, the 03.10's great career only began after it was stripped and refurbished. Until 1966, these noble racers, most recently equipped with new high-performance boilers, served in high-quality express train service for the DB.
