Updating previous notes. Delivery to DRB (rather than DRG!) - Deutsche Reichsbahn as No. 50 255 that then joined the DR - Deutsche Reichsbahn following WW2 in East Germany but was stored, on several occasions after 1950 for nearly a decade before going to Aw Stendal in 1961 for reconstruction, emerging as No. 50 3682. It was then stired for six months in 01/1968 awaiting repairs before being computerised in 1970 as 50 3682-7, working until late 1985 and being withdrawn in 1993 when it was purchased privately by Klaus-Peter Möller, for loan to the DLFS - Dampflokfreunde Salzwedel e. V., Salzwedel and by 06/2010 it had been stored due to engine damage.

This ‘Kreislok’ was originally DRG No. 50 255 and intermediary SBZ from late 1945 until back to DR in 1949. It was later re-built as a Rekolok, probably at RAW Stendal to become No. 50 3682 and, in 1991, was preserved privately in Lüneburg for the Eisenbahn museum, Salzwedel, to where it further moved by 1995.
