This Steam locomotive, No. 991777-4, was built in 1953 by VEB Lokomotivbau Karl Marx Babelsberg (LKM) in Potsdam-Babelsberg, Brandenburg, Germany. The steam locomotives of DR Class 99.77-79 were ordered by the Deutsche Reichsbahn in East Germany after World War II. They were narrow gauge locomotives with a 750 mm rail gauge and built for the narrow gauge lines in Saxony. The locomotives were largely identical to the DRG Class 99.73–76 standard locomotives built in the 1930s. Today the locomotive is used on the Radebeul–Radeburg railway (a German the heritage railway), also known as the Lößnitzgrundbahn (Lössnitzgrund Railway). Primarily a tourist attraction, the Radebeul-Radeburg railway maintains a year-round timetable and runs between Radebeul East station and the small towns of Moritzburg and Radeburg north of Dresden. Scheduled traffic on the line is maintained by Sächsische Dampfeisenbahngesellschaft mbH (former BVO Bahn), using steam locomotives built in the 1950s.
