The P 8 was a general-purpose locomotive, and was deployed for all
kinds of trains. After the turmoil resulting from the two World
Wars, they were used by almost all European railway
administrations. They were to be found in Belgium, Denmark, France,
Greece, Italy, Yugoslavia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, the Netherlands,
Austria, Poland, Romania, Czechoslovakia and the Soviet Union.
In 1919, 162 locomotives were sent to France, of which 25 went to
AL, 25 to EST, 75 to NORD, 17 to ETAT (as 230.943-959, all 1940s
phased out except for the 943) and 20 to MIDI. In 1945, the SNCF
received four more machines as the spoils of war.
