2455 Posen war am Anfang des 20.Jahrhunderts in das heutige Poznan (damals Posen) gebaut geworden und ist aktive Lok bei das Eisenbahnmuseum Darmstadt-Kranichstein. DKr ist neben das Museum interessant, weil es viel Guterverkehr gibt UND MWB gleich neben das Museum eine Niederlassung hat. Am 28 Mai 2007 war 2455 beim jährliche Offen Tur Tagen.

P 8 2455 "Posen" is parked at Aachen Hbf on 3 March 2008. This loco was built in 1919 and was in service as 230 094 in Romania until 1974. Later it was rebuilt to the state of the early twenties when it was still in service in Germany. It is currently en route with the "Zug der Erinnerung" ("Train of Commemoration") containing a rolling exhibition about children deported in the Third Reich.

Loco type P8 was built by Linke-Hofmann in Breslau (Wroclaw) in 1919 with no. 1804. It was in service in Romania as 230 094. In 2001 the loco was restored in Romania and sold to Germany where it is in service for Railway-enthusiasts as 2455 Posen in traditional Prussian coloures. Here the loco stands in Dortmund main-station on 10th of February 2008 for the initiative "Zug der Erinnerung". This "train of remember" contains an exhibition about deportations of Jewish children during WWII by Germans: Link to the exhibitors
