Delivered to the DRB by the MBA successor to O&K from their Potsdam-Babelberg/Drewitz plant as No. 50 3075 that found itself in the British zone of Germany following WW2 and was taken into the Railway Department in 1948, and joined the emerging DB in 1949. It had a replacement boiler from No. 50 2719 at Raw Bremen in 1960 and in 1968 was computerised as No. 053 075-8, running until the end of 1976 at Bw Duisburg-Wedau., then displayed at Ratingen-Tiefenbroich. In 1997 it went to the DGEG museum at Bochum-Dahlhausen, followed in 2011 by the SEMB - Stiftung Eisenbahnmuseum Bochum, Bochum, Germany.
