There were eight of these engines stored here a few years ago but what has happened to the others I don't know apart from E202 mentioned above. They were Nos E202/204/209/212 and 215 in addition to the three still there. Also E214 was being restored in Guifoes Works near Porto a couple of years ago having been at Regua for tourist trains before the Corgo line was finally closed in 2009. At the other end of the line at Chaves there is No E203. No E216 is plinthed outside the Gustav Eiffel College at Entroncamento. There were another two engines of this type built by Henschel in 1923 for the Cio do Caminho de Ferro de a Povoa de Varzim e Famalicao Nos 6 and 17 which eventually became CP Nos E181 and 182. No E182 is preserved at Macinhata do Vouga Museum and E182 is believed to be at Valencia in Spain.
