Paulista 2-8-0 Locomotives in Brazil

Class 42 (Locobase 12136)

Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines, 1888, as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University Vol 17, 193 and Vol 20, p. 220. Works numbers were 14210-14215 in January 1895 and 15074-15077 in October 1896.

High-volume Vauclain compounds for the time with 11 1/2" piston valves. Good balance in the heating surfaces and relatively high axle loading.

It's interesting to Locobase that the Paulista took delivery of 4 more Vauclain compounds with 15" HP and 25" LP cylinders while also ordering this sextet of similar, but smaller and less powerful Vauclain compounds.
