Data from See [] (August 2002). Works numbers were 730 in January 1886 and 738 in June.
Little tanks similar to the first pair, but with cylinder dimensions that would be a standard on the West Clare. Clifden (works #792)was scrapped in 1915 while Besborough (works #793) went to the scrapyard very early, in 1901.
