Sharp Stewart Serie 130
The Serie 130 is a series of steam locomotives built by the English company Sharp Stewart for the Spanish railway. They were a continuation of the 120 series. Among the many RENFE steam locomotives, this one stands out for its unique design: it is a tender locomotive with a 130 axle layout.
This locomotive was built in 1887 for the Triano railway, where it received the number 13 and the name “Pucheta”. On this railway, it was mainly used to haul trains with iron ore and for a long time was considered the most powerful locomotive in the fleet.
When it entered RENFE service under the number 130-0201, it first served at the Miranda de Ebro depot, and then at the Olavega depot. It was finally decommissioned in 1968.
