    KS 1159 appears on the works list as a small 0-6-0T that went to Mauritius, being ex-works at 5/1915. The works number suggests it may have been started up to three years earlier as the number sequence fits better to the locos being completed then. It does not appear to belong to any particular KS class and was probably a one-off.

    I have Googled it without success, and the photos that are available on the internet of locos remaining in Mauritius that come up suggest that it has not survived.

    Does anyone have any additional information, works drawings, or photos, that would indicate the appearance of this loco, and give some clues as to its working life and ultimate fate ?
