ToT writes that this class was basically the KPEV's G10 0-10-0 (Locobases 1283 and 12575) with leading and trailing trucks added. Perhaps that was so, but areas for both the boiler and the superheater given in the ToT entry are much larger.

Working mostly in the Izmir area where their light axle loading was much appreciated, these "Santa Fes" saw steam out.

Class 57.01 (Locobase 1637)

These tank engines were used as helpers ("banking engines") on a 3% grade between Bilecik and Krakoy.
