Facts and practical information

Eu-708-64 was an E-series steam locomotive that on February 7, 1943, was the first to bring a train of food and ammunition to the Finland Station after the blockade of Leningrad was broken.

It is worth noting that the current locomotive designation is in error, as according to the 1925 series designation system, there should be no dash between the letter part and the numeric part.
