Incorrect build number recorded. This is Henschel & Sohn 15973/1918 that was delivered to the German Heeresfeldbahn as the HF 1096, now at home on the French museum railway AECFM - Train Historique du Lac de Rillé, Indre-et-Loire. The locomotive still has the company number "Tx 1117", which it received when it was used on the Polish forest railway in Bialostocka. In 1978 the locomotive was decommissioned in Poland and sold to France in 1984 to the AECFM. In addition to the old company number, the locomotive was christened Polska in memory of the earlier place of use.
