Data from "A Narrow Gauge Contractor's Locomotive," The Locomotive Magazine, Vol IX (7 November 1903), p.268. Works number was 1003.
Weighing in a bit heavier than the Peckett catalog engine shown in Locobase 10381, this locomotive worked for the contractor as they built the Goold's Cross and Cashel Railway.
NB: The direct heating surface (including the firebox heating surface) is an estimate calculated by subtracting the calculated tube heating surface from the reported total evaporative heating surface.
