Data from Roy V Wright (Ed.) 1922 Locomotive Cyclopedia of American Practice, Sixth Edition (New York: Simmons-Boardman Publishing Company, 1922), p. 999. See also brief history of Tata's Steel City at [] . Works number was 3174 in 1921.
Rare bird indeed in the 20th Century:a four-coupled switcher trailing a tender. Its destination was a tinplate mill in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, the city built from scratch by industrialist Jamshedji Nausherwanji Tata.
