Data from L Derens"The Dutch Rhenish Railway and Its Locomotives"," The Locomotive Magazine, Volume XXVI [26] (15 October 1920), pp. 228-229. Works numbers were 2938-2942 in 1881.
These little saddle tanks managed to tuck a Belpaire firebox under the water tank. The tank extended from the bunker to the smokebox, splitting around the stack. Works 2342 was lost at sea before delivery.
Used as shunters, the quartet remained in use on the Holland Railway in 1919-1920.
