Myinformation is that it was supplied to the Port Kunda cement factory in 1911 - before the Soviet Union existed, which makes SZD very unlikely. In 1911 Estonia was part of the Russian empire, declaring independence in 1918 following the Soviet revolution, only to fall into Soviet hands in 1940. Would SZD be interested in a 762mm gauge cement works shunter? Does anyone know?

This was easy to sort out. I have a friend (via ham radio) that lives in Parnu. I asked him to go measure the gauge. His conclusion is that 762mm is correct.

I have this built to 762mm gauge with no recorded later ammendment ? In 1997 it was at Lavassaare Museum but the move to Parnu is welcome.

Gauge is 750mm, the loco has moved to PARNU, located at the Bus Terminal, seen in April 2014.
