Ty2-64 is Wien-Floridsdorf 9651 of 1942 which first became DRB No. 52 279 and has a frame previously carried by DRB No. 52 5638 (Schichau, Elbing No. 3916 of 1943) and exchanged prior to working for the SZD and before joining the PKP fleet at Kraków in 1945. It seems to have spent all of its years in the South and East of Poland after WWII, returning to Torun Kluczyki in 1982 and from where it was withdrawn in 1991. It stayed here until 2016 when it was moved to Dzierzoniów, on the rail route between Walbrzych and Klodzko and whilst the former depot is not yet open to the public, regular rail services operate between Jaworzyna Slaska and the depot in what is now the Museum of Industry and Railways in Silesia, Henryka Sienkiewicza 19, 58-200 Dzierzoniów, Lower Silesia
