Commencing as Lokalbahn Röwersdorf-Hotzenplotz, during inter-war years this was No. U37.004 for the CSD until ‘drafted’ into the DRG as 99 7843. In 1945 it became ÖstB and ÖBB respectively No. 298.14 and, in 1970, went to private company, Eurovapor on the Waldenburger Bahn and reached it’s current location in 1983; It was reduced to 750mm gauge in 1994.
