Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University Volume 32, p. 41 . Works numbers were 33174-33175 in January 1909.
Requirements for this pair of side tanks included a guarantee "...to haul 625-650 [long] tons ...up a grade of 1 foot in 125 feet [little more than 0.4%]." Their dimensions matched exactly those of a set of California Northwestern logging tanks from 1903 (Locobase 8173).
Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University Volume 36, p. 338 . Works numbers were 34815-34818 in June 1910 and 52337-52357 in September 1919.
Described as "suburbans" in contemporary reports, these small tanks were well-suited demands for acceleration and bi-directional operation. They seem to have performed satisfactorily because the railway ordered three more nine years later.
