Delivered to the DRB as No. 44 1558, it suceeded in the same identity to DB in 1948, later being renumbered 044 558 (some have this as 44 556-9), the actual locomotive being withdrawn in 1977 and then displayed by the local EF, in Maximilianpark,Hamm until 2000, In 2005 it went to HEG, Gelsenkirchen-Bismarck in its original identity (thus solving the computerised identity mystery!).
