Data from table in 1947 Locomotive Cyclopedia; and Baldwin Locomotive Works Negative 12,027, Class 2-8-2, 16 S, 104 supplied in March 2023 in an email from Teemu Koivumaki. Works numbers 64139-64140 in 1940.
One of several batches ordered by the Minesterio de Viacao & Obras Publicas (Ministry of Railways and Public Works) for metre-gauge lines in the early 1940s. Like many narrow-gauge superheated Mikados operating in Brazil at the time, this pair's tenders held 3.3 cords of wood. Eight-inch (203 mm) piston valves admitted steam to the cylinders.
