Contrary to what has been published before the locomotive was built for the Lohjan to Sahkorautatie where it was no. 2. But it was too heavy for the line and was sold in 1917 to the Haviala Forest Railway where it worked until the line closed in 1955. It then went on display in Tampere but in 1988 it went to Minkiö from where it has now gone back to Tampere back on display.
