Data from osimonin.nerim.net/aapanjou/_fr/loco.html (August 2002).
According to the site, which focuses on the Petit Anjou system, this class originally went into service on 295 km (183 mi) of metric track in the Meuse.
The Petit Anjou paid 28,000 francs in 1936 for each of two locomotives (3809 and 3811) to supplement the shrinking resources of the line. Unfortunately for the railway, however, the locomotives proved too heavy for the line.
