Based on:
The good reputation of the Prussian P 8 - later class 38.10-40 - was well known far outside the German borders and other railway companies purchased many of them. Additionally, the Treaty of Versailles following the first World War, required 628 locos, actually more than 25% of the fleet at that time, to be given away as compensation. Of these, Poland received 190, Belgium 168 and France 162.
