This steam locomotive entered to the service with CGR in 1931. This locomotive was used for working passenger and freight services in Udupussallawa railway. This locomotive met with a serious accident near Nuwara Eliya when it was hauling a freight train at excessive speed in 1942 and was silent for some years. In 1944 this was repaired and this was seen again in service. Up to 1960s, this locomotive was occasionally operated on Kelani Valley Line. In 1972 this was withdrawn from its service and was scrapped in 1981.[2]
