Data from Roy V Wright (Ed.) 1922 Locomotive Cyclopedia of American Practice, Sixth Edition (New York: Simmons-Boardman Publishing Company, 1922), p. 1028. See also "The Kojaku Railway Open for Traffic", Railway Review, Volume 68 (4 June 1921), p. 882. Works number was 1859.
Kojyaku Railway was built along the western shore of Lake Biwa from Otsu in the Shiga prefecture (near Kyoto) north to Takashima, then west to Obama, Wakasa on the Yellow Sea coast. Planned for a total distance of 66.75 miles (107.5 km), the first four-mile section from Otsu to Eizan in Sakamoto opened in 1921 and work on the next eight-mile section had begun.
