In 1904 the Baldwin Locomotive Works began to build an L-class locomotive designed by French engineer M. Anatole Mallet and first introduced on European railways in 1889. Baldwin produced its first Mallet locomotives for the American Railroad of Puerto Rico. These would be among the thousands of Baldwin-built locomotives sold and used around the world.
