Reportedly (sources) according to Strapac's great SP Compendium series, SP 3134 was built in April 1965 as SP 4867, SP Class DF-504, construction number 3401-23. In the 1965 renumbering it became SP 7126, SP Class AF628-2. In Sept. 1974 it was downgraded to switcher status and became 3134, SP Class AS628-1. It was sold in for scrap in May 1979.
