Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University Volume 62, pp. 355+. Works numbers were 52936 in January 1920 and 52984 in February.
Wood-burning logging Prairies weren't uncommon in the southeast. The specs for this pair also describe a typical working environment: "Rough track", "short grades of 6%" and "prevailing grades of 1% to 3%". Florida temperatures were acknowledged through the provision of a "large and roomy" cab with ventilators in the roof and large windows.
This pair served H-W and later Brown Florida Lumber.
