Data from DeGolyer, Vol 79, pp. 368+. See also a listing of Sugar Centrals in the Philippines in the American Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines Journal (January 1922), p. 30. Works numbers were 60247-60251 in October 1927.
Fitted with a Rushton Improved spark-arresting cabbage stack, these six-coupled plantation locomotives beefed up one of the two Tarlac City sugar centrals north of Manila in Luzon.
5 would later join its production-line mate #9, which was delivered to the Central Azucarera de Bais.
