Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University, Vol 64, p. 72. Works numbers were 52193-52194 in August 1919.
The profile of the CEP described in Locobase 14841 called for a powerful plantation Consolidation like this.
Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University, Vol 64, p. 167. Works number was 54215 in December 1920.
As the CEP fleshed out its motive power stud, it acquired this oil-burning plantation Consolidation originally ordered by the Central Caribe.
