Data from Roy V Wright (Ed.) 1922 Locomotive Cyclopedia of American Practice, Sixth Edition (New York: Simmons-Boardman Publishing Company, 1922), p. 1026. Works number was 2620 in July 1917.
Small saddle-tank switcher for this Bahia, Brazil company. This wood-burner had a spark-arresting stack roughly the shape of a martini glass.
