Data from WilliamBay, Danmarks Damplokomotiver (1977). Class information from []. Hanomag supplied 8 in 1875 to the Jydsk-Fyenske Jernbaner (JFJ); 3 in 1876, and 3 in 1877 went to the +stjydske Jernbane (OJJ) as their #1-7; and 3 went to the Silkeborg - Herning Banen (SHB) in 1877.
The SHB had begun construction as a private railway when the JFJ declined to connect the two towns, but the JFJ absorbed the SHB in 1881 after its failure led to an 1879 Danish law requiring its disposition. The OJJ turned its locomotives over to the JFJ in 1882.
Most of these little tanks had relatively short careers and were scrapped in 1900-1904. Jernbane.dk reports that L 111 and L 117 were rebuilt as 0-4-2 tender engines in 1907. A photograph of L 115 taken in 1895 and shown in the same site, however, shows it to have been similarly reworked.
