This locomotive, I believe, was never with the KPEV but was one of 59 built directly by Henschel for the CFR as Nos. 1441-1499 (itself established in 1880).

Apparently this is Henschel 3824/1894 which became CFR No, 1497 (only once displayed in preservation as 1493, as in the front photograph - which was Henschel 3820/1894 also purchased by CFR). Slight modification of title required please.

The locomotive is preserved as number 1493 but, apparently, its actual running number was 1497 which would - possibly - make its construction number 3823 or something else?
