Sussidiate/FSE 0-8-0 Locomotives in Italy
Class Details by Steve Llanso of Sweat House Media
Class 13 (Locobase 6187)
Data from [
] (30 June 2004). This website celebrates the Ferrovie de Sud-Est; see Locobase 6186
Sussidiate added these more powerful eight-coupled tanks to its other St. Leonard engines in 1914. Compared to the earlier 0-6-0Ts, these had a shorter wheelbase even though they had one more axle. Axle loading went up as did boiler capacity.
The two endured into the 1960s with 14 being transferred to E. Astengo for industrial service in September 1960 while 13 went for scrap on 13 March 1963.
