Administracion Nacional de Puertos 0-6-0 Locomotives in Uruguay


Class Details by Steve Llanso of Sweat House Media

Class 1 (Locobase 4777)

Data from [link]

O& K builder's number was 5433. The website reported that the top speed for this port locomotive was about 50 km/h (31 mph) with a horsepower rating of 520 hp. The boiler appears to be about the same size as an O&K 0-4-0T rated at 300 hp, but the cylinders are considerably larger.

It was preserved in Uruguay as a historic national monument.
