  The photo is of an ex L&N tender from one of the Baldwin built M-1 class 2-8-4 locomotives "Big Emmas".The Baldwin tenders had Buckeye trucks.This tender was used behind 611 as an A-tank when it was rebuilt in 1982.It had a Tuscan stripe at that time.It went to the Noblesville group in 1989 to be used with their Nickel Plate Mikado 587.

  I thought the excursion tanks had Commonwealth trucks with rotating end cap roller bearings, a different water hatch and the rivets burned off.

  AFAIK, there are no N&W Auxialary tanks from the steam era in existence; I believe this is a photo of an ex-L&N tender.

  The picture on this page: http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=903877 looks like a real N&W A tank.  I didn't think any where left.  Does anyone know anything about it?
