Contrary to the accompanying site of Senior Javier López, I have this locomotive, built in the Atlas workshops of Sharp Stewart as construction No. 859, as a 2-4-0 tender locomotive that became Barcelona-Martorell Railway, later the Tarragona-Barcelona and France Railway No. 4. The latter company was taken over by the MZA , converted to a 2-4-0T and given the No. 168 for the Barcelona International Exposition of 1929/30. It’s RENFE number still implies a 2-4-0 tender locomotive, though it is preserved, correctly, as MZA No. 168.
El personal de steamlocomotive.info le gustaria agradecer al sr. Javier Fernandez por su amablilidad en permitirnos usar la informacion de su pagina de internet para completar nuestra base de datos de las locomotoras de vapor espanolas.
