Data from "Recent Baldwin Locomotives for Export", Railway Gazette, Volume 61, No. 11 (15 September 1916), p. 465-466. See also DeGolyer, Volume 60, pp. 100 and 204. (Thanks to Baiyu Shang for his 25 November 2018 email supplying some key information on this class; see below.) Works numbers were 43671-43674 in July 1916.
The Canton-Hankow took delivery of ten locomotives, all with Belpaire fireboxes; the four Ten-wheelers appear in Locobase 13444 and the two 0-6-0 tanks in Locobase 13445. The 2-8-0s' grates rode above the driving axles to ensure there would be enough grate area for the relatively low-calorie coal to generate the steam the cylinders would need. Both main-line quartets had 11" (279 mm) piston valves.
