Most of the information outlined below was gleaned from the series of books Eisenbahn-Fahrzeug-Archiv, Dampflokomotiven deutscher Eisenbahn, published by alba.

In the table below, the link to the image will be in the column appropriate to the version.

i.e. If it's in it's original form, it'll be in the Origin and class column.
If it's running with a DRG or DB number, it'll be in the DRG/DB column.
If it's a DB rebuilt version, then it will be DB rebuilt that's highlighted.

'Güterzuglokomotiven' - Freight locomotives

DRG/DB Class and sub-class	Origin and class	Type	Built
41	Einheitslok (DRG Standard design)	2-cylinder 2-8-2	366 from 1936 Many later rebuilt by the DB with new boilers, and some converted to burn oil.
42	Kriegslok (War / austerity design)	Heavy-weight 2-cylinder 2-10-0	Starting in 1944, 844 were built before the end of WWII, 2 with Brotan boilers.
42⁹⁰	Umbaulok DB (DB rebuild)	2-cylinder 2-10-0 with a Franco-Crosti boiler.	2 in 1951
43	Einheitslok (DRG Standard design)	2-cylinder 2-10-0	35 in 1926 Not to be confused with the 'computer' class number 043 later given by the DB to oil burning 44's.
44	Einheitslok (DRG Standard design)	3-cylinder 2-10-0	Starting in 1926, but mostly from 1936, 1753 were built before the end of 1944. Many were later rebuilt by both the DB and DR, some with oil firing.
45	Einheitslok (DRG Standard design)	3-cylinder 2-10-2	28 from 1936
50	Einheitslok (DRG Standard design)	2-cylinder 2-10-0	3164 from 1939 to 1944 The definitive German 2-10-0. Stripped-down, this is essentially what became the class 52 Kriegslok. Many were rebuilt by both the DB and DR after WWII - see below.
50^35-37 50⁵⁰	DR rebuild of a standard 50 with new boilers, and in the case of the 50⁵⁰, oil firing.	2-cylinder 2-10-0	1957 1966
50⁴⁰	DB rebuild of a standard 50 with a Franco-Crosti boiler	2-cylinder 2-10-0	1959
050-053	As there were so many class 50's, when the DB re-numbered them to fit in with the new computer numbering system, there weren't enough numbers left in the 050 class (max 999 locos per class). As the 'real' class 52's didn't survive on the DB to be re-numbered, the class 50's used the computer class no.s of 050, 051, 052 and 053.
52	Kriegslok (War / austerity design)	Light-weight 2-cylinder 2-10-0	There is a certain amount of debate over how many were actually built, but Alfred B. Gottwaldt (a notable German railway historian) reckons 6151 between 1942-45. Many were later rebuilt by the DR. Neither the 42's nor the 52's lasted long on the DB after the war.
52^18-20	Kriegslok (War / austerity design)	Light-weight 2-cylinder 2-10-0 with condensing tender.	178 between 1942-45. There were 2 slightly different condensing tender types - for running extended distances without the need to fill up with more water.
52⁷⁰	Saxon III b	2-cylinder 2-4-0	1874
53	Although Märklin produce one of the proposed class 53 Mallets, the locomotive was never actually completed.
