Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University, Vol 78, pp. 210. Works number was 58311 in March 1925.
The FC Pisco a Ica was one of the many small Peruvian railways operated by the British-owned Peruvian corporation. It ran 46 miles (74 km) on 56 lb/yard (28 kg/metre) on a relatively gentle profile that included 2.3% grades and curve radii of 443 ft (135 m) or 12.9 degrees.
