Data from Catalogue Descriptive of Simple and Compound Locomotives built by Brooks Locomotive Works, Dunkirk, NY (Buffalo, NY: Matthew-Northrup Company, 1899). Works #3206-3208. Builder info from B.Rumary, 25 Kingscombe, Gurney Slade, Radstock, BA3 4TH, ENGLAND and Jeremy Lambert as supplied by Allen Stanley in March 2004. Works numbers 3206-3208.
This was a very narrow railway that encompassed 82 km (50 mph) of line and its first locomotives came in a varietous batch in 1899. The first three were these Consolidations which must have constituted the heavy-duty freight haulers on the line. See Locobase 9626 for the somewhat smaller Moguls.
