The information here seems somewhat skewed! Firstly, No. 52 2676 was Henschel & Sohn build number 27854/1944, wthdrawn from Dresden in 1976. Jung 11322 was delivered to the DRB during the closing months of WW2 as No. 52 3311 and almost immediately was put to work by the Sovies on the CSD Ceskoslovenské Státni Dráhy [CSSR) bedore joining the SBZ Military Administration in the same identity, then in 1952, being adopted by the Soviets as No. TE-3311 and returned to the DR in the then East Germany during 1962 in its former itentity. It more or less went traight to Raw Stendal and was re-constructed with a new boiler, then emerging as No. 52 8068 (please note), which beccae No. 52 8068-0 in 1970. It sserved as a stationary boiler at Bw Wustermark from 1988 until wthdrawal in late 1991 and then went, evenntually, to the SRM at Hilbersdorf via Aalen, and Olbernhau.
