Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University, Volume 66, p. 327+. Works number was 52127 in August 1919.
In 1909, Mendes Lima was a purveyor of codfish in Pernambuco. This wood-burning plantation side tank was ordered about a decade later, either to support a plantation business or to work dockside.
Always on guard against starting fires with their wood-burning engines, Baldwin's customer requested a change described in a "Hereafter" note in the specs: "Ash pans to have netting under dampers and ash pan slide work to be omitted." Already specified was the spark-arresting, 9" (229 mm) Rushton Improved stack.
