Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University Volume 32, p. 253. Works number was 32847 in July 1908.
This little outside-framed, wood-burning Mogul was rated to haul 100 long tons of trailing load up a maximum grade of 2% for 3.2 km(2 miles) and negotiate 100-metre (328-ft) curves. Maximum speed on the level was to be 35 km/h (22 mph). The SP a M ran 135 km (84 miles). Locobase cannot say if all or part of the Sao Paulo a Minas was rolled into the Cantareira Tramway, but the Rio Pardo certainly moved over. Its younger sister (an identical "twin") was delivered directly to the tramway and is shown in Locobase 13343.
