Data from Roy V Wright (Ed.) 1922 Locomotive Cyclopedia of American Practice, Sixth Edition (New York: Simmons-Boardman Publishing Company, 1922), p. 1008. See also "Recently Constructed Export Locomotives", Railway Review, Volume 57 (4 December 1915), pp.713-716; and "Interesting Variety of Types of Locomotives for the Greek, Serbian, Belgian and Russian Governments built by the American Locomotive Company", Railway & Locomotive Engineering, Volume XXVIII [28], No. 12 (December 1915), pp. 406-409. Works numbers were 55097-55110 in March 1915.
R&LE's report noted the rapid pace at which the Paterson, NJ Cooke Works turned out this Consolidation batch. Serbia's representatives ordered seven engines on 12 January 1915, increasing the total to a dozen on 28 January. By 11 March, five had been shipped and the remaining seven left port a week later on 18 March.
