<p>[quote user="schlimm"]</p> <p>Two years ago i saw a restored BR 38 (P8) at the rail museum in Heilbronn. Great-looking engine restored to KPEV livery.</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>Was it this one?</p> <p><a href="http://www.bahnbilder.de/1024/br-38-3199-goeppingen-19-9-2009-351253.jpg"><img src="http://www.bahnbilder.de/1024/br-38-3199-goeppingen-19-9-2009-351253.jpg" alt=" " border="0" /></a></p> <p>It is not a real KPEV P8, but one built following the design, exported to Romania in 1922. It was bought back quite a few years ago and refitted to be closer to the original design. In 1922, the then newly founded Deutsche Reichsbahn still received a number of locos which had been ordered by the various state railways in Germany. They usually had the livery as ordered, but received the new DR number. The above loco nicely represents what could have been.</p>
