The DRG Class E 79 (originally ordered as Bavarian Class EG 4) was one of the goods train electric locomotive classes procured by the Bavarian Group Administration of the Deutsche Reichsbahn for the line from Freilassing to Berchtesgaden. The two engines, delivered in 1927, were scrapped however as soon as the start of the Second World War.
