It is reported as being the last streamlined Class O1 to be built in 1940 and converted to buring oil (from coal) in 1957 (there seems to be no record of it having been converted back to coal? - hence the renumbering as a Class 012 at a later date, and the current identification.

Delivered to the DRB as No. 01 1104 with whom it served 1940-1945; the SBZ 1945-1949, then the DB 1949-1974 when it was withdrawn, having been re-numbered 012 104-8 post WW2. In early 1975 it was transported to Steamtown, Carnforth UK, where it languished until 1997 before returning ‘home’ to the BEM, Nördlingen, and subsequently in 2001, to the SEH Heilbronn as a non-runner.
