Post subject:  Spanish Steam Locomotive

A Spanish railfan just recently submitted a photo of a locomotive on display in Bilbao, Spain. Our list of Spanish locomotives (at www.steamlocomotive.info) came from two websites, and a text file submitted by a Spanish gentleman.

If you'll look at the locomotive at the link below you'll see that the builder is listed as 'BP'. This came from the original source materials we worked with. Does anyone know what this stands for? (I'm reasonably certain British Petroleum wasn't around in the 1860's)

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Doug www.steamlocomotive.info

But of course! Thank you. After looking at this data for so long, I'm a bit brain dead.
