Built in 1959 for the Saturn Cement Works in Katawice. This Tkh (Ferrum) worked all of its life hauling pressurised cement wagons about the site. In 1990 it received a new inner firebox and then resumed its duties until 1992. This particular locomotive was "tail end Charlie" in a main line tow of locomotives from Poland across europe. Unfortunately one of the leading axle boxes ran hot and the locomotive had to be left behind just inside the Polish border. It waited there for some weeks before finally traveling to Northampton on a road trailer, arriving on 11th September 1996.
