Alcaniz a Puebla de Hijar 0-8-0 Locomotives in Spain


Class Details by Steve Llanso of Sweat House Media

Class Espa'a/040-2188 (Locobase 3460)

Data from [], the web site of the Spanish National Railway.

It's hard to tell from the photograph if the 101 had a Belpaire firebox. The boiler does not have a straight line back to the cab, but the firebox's greater width is quite rounded.
