Built by American Locomotive Company in January 1910 for the Florida East Coast. This locomotive, numbered 80 on the FEC, was one of 89 nearly identical light Pacifics built for the road between 1907 and 1922. These Pacifics, while light, were sufficient for the flat FEC, and served on passenger trains for many decades. With increasing train weight due to heavyweight passenger cars during the 1920s and 1930s, the class was displaced by Mountain types, and the Pacifics were reassigned to secondary trains and branch lines.
However, there were far too many of the class in service, and forty-nine of them were sold off to various smaller roads across the Southeastern USA, primarily in the state of Georgia. The Savannah & Atlanta Railway bought a trio during 1935 and 1936, with the first, FEC 80, receiving the number 750. On the S&A, like most lines receiving the FEC Pacifics, the engines were used as dual purpose locomotives. The only photograph of the locomotive with a train on the S&A that this author could find shows 750 on the point of a freight or mixed train in Camak, Georgia. 750 remained on the roster until the S&A donated the locomotive to the Atlanta Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society in 1962.
