Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University Vol 22, p. 238. Works numbers were 17410-17412 in January 1900.
These Bengali Moguls (a mixed cultural metaphor ...) were identical to the Burmese G class described in Locobase 12328.
