67 locomotives were built between 1940–57[1] by Tampella, Lokomo and Arnold Jung Lokomotivfabrik GmbH, Jungenthal of Germany.[1] The "Risto" is a product of the same era as the express train locomotive Ukko-Pekka (Hr1), and they share a similar appearance as well as several common components. Because of their high tractive effort the Tr1 locomotives were also called upon for passenger service of a heavy intermediate character. Tr1 1096 was the last steam locomotive manufactured for VR in 1957.[1] Tr1 locomotives were withdrawn during the 1970s, with the last being withdrawn in 1975.[1]
Two Tr1 locomotives are located in the United Kingdom. One is owned by millionaire railway enthusiast David Buck, while another lies abandoned in a secluded forest in Acton, Suffolk.[3]

Паровоз Tr1 (фин. Tavarajunaveturi — товарный локомотив, raskas — тяжёлый; до 1942 — R1; прозвище — Risto (Ристо) — в честь политика Ристо Рюти) — серия финских грузовых паровозов типа 1-4-1. Выпускались двумя финскими заводами Tampella (33 шт) и Lokomo (14 шт), а также немецким Jung (20 шт) с 1940 по 1957 гг. По конструкции схожи с пассажирскими паровозами типа 2-3-1 серии Hr1 / Ukko-Pekka (назван в честь политика Пер Свинхувуда (основное отличие — в числе движущих колёс и их диаметрах). Предназначались для вождения тяжёлых грузовых поездов, но нередко водили и пассажирские экспрессы.
