United Railway of Havana

S8

Two units (c/n 75719 & 75720) delivered new to United Railway of Havana in 1952, as number 8001 and 8002.
Later to the FC Occidentales de Cuba, possibly with same numbers. When Ferrocarriles de Cuba renumbered
the stock in the 70's, they were renumbered as 70801 and 70802, but 70802 was withdrawn before application of the new number.
