Ok1-198 was a now famous Prussian P8, built just after WWI and entered service with the KPEV as Bromberg 2465, re-numbered to Osten 2465 from 1920. It joined the DRB in 1925 as No. 38 2402 and survived WWII to be included in the PKP at Torun in 1945. It spent most of its days around Silesia and was at Leszno in 1962 for over a decade until presenting itself at Miedzyrzecz in 1975 where it was withdrawn in 1980 and kept there in store. In 1990 it was taken for to Zagan for renovation and, in 1993, placed on display outside the PKP Cargo depot turntable (where photographed} and semi-roundhouse, but which now appears to be plinthed on the railway near the station at Kolejowa 88, 68-100 Zagan, Lubusz
