Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University Volume 13, p. 226. (Thanks to Teemu Koivumaki for his 14 June 2020 email noting this additional Cantagallo Mogule.) Works number was 8497 in April 1887.
Koivumaki's observation that there was another Cantagallo 2-6-0 in the Baldwin specifications series set Locobase on a search for sufficient data to enter the locomotive into the database. At the time these specifications were written in 1887, the person entering the order seldom entered the company's calculation of heatiing surface area. It's possible to extract the tube heating surface value, but figuring the firebox heating surface area is hard. Better to find a similar Baldwin engine of a later vintage with firebox dimensions closely matching (i.e. to the 1/4" or 1/2") the subject engine that has the data filled in.
Locobase found that match in the 1904 locomotives described in Locobase 12702. They too are Brazilian, running on the same gauge, identical in all dimensions. That entry served as the basis for this one.
