Buenos Aires Pacific No. 151 to 154
Argentina 1904 4 produced
In 1904, Kerr Stuart delivered four 0-6-0T tank locomotives to the Buenos Aires & Pacific Railway which got the numbers 151 to 154. They had outside cylinders which were inclined and inside valve gear. What can be seen from the photo are the cow catchers on both ends to allow mainline running in both directions. Also striking is the American-style headlight in front of the chimney.
