Title: Large N Scale Tender
Post by: PEANUTS on November 02, 2014, 01:22:12 AM
Hi from Brisbane, Aust. I have just been given a large tender, 4" long, both trucks with 4 axles. What type of loco / freight would this type of tender be used ??
Am tempted to remove the draw bar, replace with a Micro-trains coupler and use as an auxiliary tender behind my new EM-1. Any words of wisdom, thanks

It's from the ATSF 4-8-4 Northern. It's pretty unique to those locos. I've seen some people use it as the basis for a kitbash of the long distance PRR tenders.

Skipgear knows what he's talking about.
