For what it's worth: A regional railroad in Austria, the GKB, based in Graz, Austria, has a standard-gauge 0-6-0 steam locomotive built 1860 that is still operable. It is claimed to be the oldest steam locomotive in continuous service in the world.

The major changes from its "as built" configuration are an enclosed cab and the conversion from vacuum brakes to standard air brakes.
