These engines are intended for fast passenger service in Brazil; they develop tractive force, at 80 per cent boiler pressure, of 50,420 lb.; these particular engines will be employed for operating passenger trains on Alta da Serra-San Paulo-Jundiahy section of main line, ruling gradient of which is 2 1/2 per cent, and will be capable of hauling trains of over 400 tons on this grade without resort to banking.
