The [[Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane]] (Italian State Railways) built the 151-strong compound [[FS Class 680]] for express trains from 1907 to 1911. The [[FS Class 685]], built in 271 units from 1912 to 1928, was its non-compound and superheated version, and proved very successful, to the point that all but 31 of the earlier Class 680 were rebuilt as 685 (bringing the size of the class to 391 locomotives).<ref>{{cite book |last1=Mascherpa |first1=Erminio |last2=Turchi |first2=Gian Guido |title=La regina delle locomotive |publisher=Editrice trasporti su rotaie |isbn=88-85068-02-2 |page=28|year=1984 }}</ref>
