After only a few years, the CSA sold this plantation Consolidation to the nearby Central Toledo, which was located at Marianao in Havana Province.

Baldwin produced plantation Consolidation designs in several sizes and weights. This was one of the skinny-gauge engines that weighed about 29 tons ready for operation. The Baldwin spec included a long list of detail parts on page 48 that were to be packed separately and forwarded by ocean freight, most likely to avoid damage or loss if they remained on the engine.
The San Antonio, located at Madruga in La Habana Province, later sold the 4 to the Central Dos Rosas at Cardenas in Matanzas Province, where she may have been renumbered 9. The CDR was renamed after the 1959 Revolucion and expropriation for Humberto Alvarez. At that point, 4 was renumbered 1242

This oil-burning plantation Consolidation was a typical sugar-mill engine. It was later owned by the Central Sugar Company.

The Ingenio San Agustin had a main line of 11 km (6.8 sm) rolling on rails weighing between 40-50 lb/yard (20-25-kg/metre). Whereas the 1910 locomotive burned coal, the 1920 trailed a bigger tender that held 1,500 US gallons (5,678 litres) of water and 800 gallons (3,028 liters) of heavy Tampico oil. Fully loaded, the new tender weighed 33,500 lb (15,195 kg).

The CSA bought this stock oil-burning Baldwin plantation Consolidation at the same time its sister was supplied to the Central Progreso.

There were two Centrales named San Agustin. The narrow-gauge railway that took delivery of this plantation Consolidation operated in Caibarien in Santa Clara Province. The line had 45 lb/yard (22.5 kg/metre) rail and 11 3/4-degree curves (radii of 492 ft/150 metres). Compared to several other 2-8-0s of about the same size, this design had a shallower firebox.

By the time these plantation Consolidations arrived at its Santa Clara railway, the line had been improved. Now the lightest rail weighed 40 lb/yard (20 kg/metre), presented a maximum grade of 2.8% over a 4 kilometre (2.5 mile) run, and minimum curves bending a gentler 200 metres (656 feet) in radius.
