After No. 31 with the wheel arrangement 2-4-4T delivered by Rogers in 1875, they ordered No. 32 as a 2-6-6T. It was shipped to Cuba on November 23, 1878 and carried the works number 2504. It had drivers with a diameter of 33 3/4 inches and cylinders of 13.5 by 16 inches. Some sources also state a cylinder diameter of 13 inches.
