This steam locomotive was constructed in 1928 and weighs about 60.000 kg. It was able to reach a maximum velocity of 80 km/h.
It is now on display inside the railway station of Cagliari, together with its tender. There is also an information board which gives some interesting technical data, see the attached photo. The condition of the locomotive seems to be ok, although it is somewhat dirty, partly due to the pidgeons that use it as a nesting place.
If someone provided an Italian description, we would be glad to put it here.
