The company manufactured the so-called "war locomotives" of the Class 52. A total of 6,719 units left the Wildau factory. Direct armaments accounted for one-third of production, while locomotive construction accounted for two-thirds.

At the moment (Sep 2021) the locomotive is "hidden" under a large tarpaulin.

Freight locomotive 52 8135 (factory no. 15571) was built in 1943 at the Borsig locomotive factory in Berlin. In 1965, it was converted from locomotive 52 474 at the Stendal locomotive works. It was used primarily as a freight locomotive until 1989.
The locomotive stood as a memorial locomotive in the Aeropark in Diepensee from 1991 to 1998. After the park went bankrupt, the locomotive was acquired by the Technical University of Applied Sciences in Wildau in 1998 and placed on a turntable in front of the Technical University on June 9, 1998. At the beginning of the 2020s, the locomotive received a new paint job, with the locomotive superstructure and chassis being painted black.
