3 Note that some numbers were used more than once as units were retired and replaced by others, sometimes of different type.
4 Note that locomotives built prior to 1905 had a different numbering scheme and were renumbered in 1905. Numerous if not all locomotives also carried names prior to 1905. No attempt was made to include locomotives disposed of prior to 1905 as the variations are too numerous to list.
5 This is the total time span for units of this type; not all units remained on the roster between these dates.
6 ren = renumbered.
