[] by Ejii Nozawa data. Identical to the 500 or 600 class in Japan, these engines were built by Rober Stephenson & Sons and Nasmyth Wilson of Great Britain and Kisha-Seizo of Japan. These were the first locomotives built by KSK. Weights, boiler pressure, and heating surface varied slightly among the sub-batches. All 20 engines were delivered between 1901 and 1908.
