This was previously Salzwedeler Kleinbahn No. 5, later Altmärkische Kb that, in 1928, became Franzburger Kb No. 9 then Pommersche Landesbahn (PLB) No. 130N3306, later only No. 130. I can find no record of it ever belonging to DB (as currently listed though it probably was part of DRG as No. 99 5611 1925-1937 followed by the original DRB 1937-1945), though, of course DR only emerged in 1949, the locomotive retiring in early 1971. It was preserved privately in 1973 by the museums railway Dunières-St. Agrève, France then one of three by M Prévot in Portes les Valence, and where it still was, apparently, in 2004 ?
