Data from "Ten Wheel Tank Locomotive, Cork, Bandon & South Coast Ry," The Locomotive Magazine, Volume XII [12] (15 August 1906), p. 131. Works numbers were 4752, 5265 (1909), 5413 (1910), 5616 (1912), 5822 (1914), 5954 (1919).
Known in later years as the "Bandon Tanks", this class had a relatively short driver wheelbase that permitted operation on more of the mileage served by the successor railways that operated them.
