The locomotive was supplied to the new Mathildenhuette Iron Works, Bad Harzburg, Niedersachsen, Germany (with no known identity). However, it would appear that the blast furnaces shut down in 1874 following the 1873 fincial crash; the locomotive afterwards moving to the Anneliese Cement Works, Ennigerloh, Nord-Rheine Westplalia prior to WW2 and had replacemnt Jung boiler No. 10895. It finished service in 1971 and it took until 1983 before being displayed at Bf Almstedt-Segeste, Sachsen-Anhalt, only then as No. 18 until being stored in 1988. In 1992 it was purchased privately by F Beismass for the Werkbahnmuseum, Hannover and named "ANNELIESE", where it still was in 2006 though oossibly renamed ?
