A German Henschel-Siemens locomotive, that was nicknamed Pão de Forma (sandwich loaf) and Bondinho (tramway) due to its "square" shape. Note the dark-blue-with-yellow-stripe livery that was characteristic of the E.F. Central do Brasil's locomotives during the fifties. After the electrification scrapping at E.F.C.B., these locomotives were transfered to the E.F. Santos a Jundiaí in the late seventies.
