N&W Tenders

[nw-mailing-list at nwhs.org]

On the NS, they used two big water bottles. The first was an L&N Big Emma 
tender that was cut down. This would be the one that carried the red stripe 
and was later painted to match the tool car. The second was the bottle that 
came along with the A. What is the history of this bottle? I had heard once 
that it was an N&W tender that was converted to a bottle, but I don't recall 
who converted it.
As for the other Southern/NS bottles... SRM in Atlanta has WT 52, TVRM has 
WT 5x and the little bottle that 4501 carried (was green).Where did the two 
big NS bottles go after 1994?
