Data from DeGolyer, Vol 64, pp. 161. Works numbers were 53762 in September 1920.
This oil-burning plantation saddle tank was originally ordered by the Central San Cristobal, but was diverted to the CSC before delivery. The Santa Catalina was located in Santa Clara Province as one of several mills near Ranchuelo.
After the 1959 Revolucion and expropriation, the Santa Catalina was renamed for Carlos Caraballo.
