Limburgsche Tramweg Maatschappij (LTM) 53 was a locomotive built by Krupp, serial number 737, in 1924.^[1] It entered service for Krupp factories in Essen in 1925. It was used as a plant switcher.^[1] The LTM purchased the locomotive in 1932, for coal service between Echt NS and Maasbracht Haven (harbour), which was operated by the LTM.^[1] This service terminated in 1936.^[1] Mining company Laura & Vereeninging (Eijgelshoven, The Netherlands) purchased the locomotive in 1937, and it entered service with the name Julia III at mine Julia. In 1962 the identifier was changed in LV 11.^[1] In 1944 it was temporarily rented out to the Staatsmijnen (SM), for a few months.
