They were numerred as EES /CH/SEΚ Κα.801-802, but were taken back to Bulgaria by the end of German-Bulgarian occupation of Eastern Macedonia in 1944. When locomotives with 2-10-0 wheel arrangement were sreated the nickname Decapods was given and kept to them. As a loot also remained in Greece by the end of the German occupation 13 locomotives 0-10-0 Henschel, Borsig and Hanomag numbered as SEK Ka.881-893. In 1950 the French-Hellenique CO (Chemins de Fer Orientaux) of Evros district purchased two StEG decapods from French PLM. When in 1954 CO was amalgamated by CH (SEK), the two decapods were renumbered as Κβ.809-810. In 1925 SEK enabled the most ever numerous purchase of locomotives of 50 StEG decapods, similar to the renowned austrian class 80. They were numbered Κβ.811-860. Due to heavy losses during WWII only a few of them remained. A final purchase of 0-10-0 decapods was made by SEK in 1929 with 20 locomotives from the Belgian manufactories Tubize (10), St.Leonard (5) and Haine-St.Pierre (5). SEK numbered them as Κγ.861-880. This class suffered also great losses during the WWII, destructed, damaged or even stolen by the evacuating german forces. Common specifications of thw K class were 3-axled tenders, power of 1200 HP (some 1400) and max. speed of 50 km/h (60 for the german Κα). They were withdrowned by the end of the steam era and scraped all but two: Κβ.817 remains in bad shape at Thessaloniki Depot and Κγ.877 in Drama Depot where works for external restoration as a museum excibit are in progress since 2024.
