Hello

i don't know about german army but there  was Finland  pl37. Finlanders captured 1 or 2 PL37 during "winter war" , restored it and use during the end of war as anti aircraft. it's in the  museum now.  there is some picture of it .

captured by fins L37 

Probably german army couldn't capture any PL37 because that  railcars was good armed and use for covering of army retreat in 1941. So the most of them was totally destroyed by german aircraft and artilery because they didn't give up.

May be you can find capterud pl37 in some special books about railway but i couldn't.
