| Remarks & Notes |
| On the horseshoe curve out of Ghinda station, Mallet tank 442.59 crosses another of the many viaducts that were rebuilt during the railway's reconstruction after the war of independence from Ethiopia. This loco. was now leaking steam badly from one of its cylinders, and struggled to reach the next station at Embatkalla, where it was declared a failure and the train terminated. |
