A slight addition/correction to my previous note. The locomotive became DRG No. 38 3587, 1925-1937 and only DRB 1937-1945, then to PKP.

Ok1-266 (38.3587) is one of the surviving Prussian Class P8, originally supplied to the KPEV Elberfeld 3034 in Germany. It became DRB (in 1925) No. 38 3587 and was only incorporated into the PKP fleet after 1945, firstly at Malbork, then Tczew. It frequently worked from Olsztyn and found its way to Ostroleka in late 1969 where, in 1978, it was withdrawn and, after a long stay here, was eventually, displayed in 1987. However, it was moved to Elk in 1996 and was not, until the Autumn of 2014, moved to the Polish Association of Railway Enthusiasts, where it is plinthed at ul. Lowicka 1, 96-100 Skierniewice, Lódz
