Data from "Lima Switcher," Railway and Locomotive Engineering, Volume 18, No 6 (June 1905), p. 272. Works number was 1011 in April 1905.
Locobase has logged an agenda item to include North American switchers in the holding at some later date. But this little saddle tank turned up in another search, so the compiler put it in.
