The East Prussian Southern Railway, taken over by the Prussian state railways in 1903, also ordered 24 of these engines between 1890 and 1901, for which a template (Musterblatt) based on Prussian norms had been prepared.
In addition to standard locomotives, there were also 285 G 3s that were not built to German state railway norms, because they had been built, in most cases, before the foundation of the Prussian state railways.
These earlier locomotives were delivered between 1872 and 1896 and did not meet the Prussian norms.
Of the 2-4-0 type, 88 came from railway companies that were the predecessors to the Prussian state railways and did not comply with Prussian norms, 24 were of the Ruhr-Sieg type (see Prussian P 1) and 182 were standard P 2's.
Together with the Prussian T 2 they were the first locomotives that were built to railway norms.
