Almost all maintenance depots in Bavaria, which served branch lines, had GtL 4/4 locomotives in their vehicle fleet. The two last Bavarian GtL 4/4 of the "Bw Schweinfurt" were one of the favorite locomotives of the railway fans in the 1960s. Towards the end of her career, the 098 812 ran on the branch line from Bad Neustadt (Saale) to Königshofen (im Grabfeld) and hauled passenger and goods trains. The still functioning locomotive has been preserved for the use in museums and belongs to the "Ulmer Eisenbahnfreunde".
