Cool. My two 4-6-2's have 6 wheel trucks. All the  pictures I have seen of 
#578 show it with 4 wheel trucks. Does anyone have a  picture of any of the N&W 
E's with 6-wheel trucks?

Three-axle trucks, or six-wheel trucks.  N&W  Lewis design.

Would the 15,000 gallon tender have had  2-wheel trucks, or 3-wheel trucks?

According to  the listing in Vern French’s Williamson terminal book, as of 31 
DEC  1955, the tenders for Z-1’s were a mix of 18,000 and 16,000  tenders.  
Of the 52 locomotives listed, 21 were listed with 16,000  gallon tenders.  
However, there is some uncertainty in this listing  as to the actual tenders 
assigned to each locomotive.  It would  appear that a Z-1 with a 15,000 gallon 
tender was headed to the scrap  line.  There was a good deal of swapping around at 
that time as  many steam locomotives were heading to the scrap or storage 
lines as the  diesel deliveries built up.. 
Prior to about  1956, many of the E-2’s had 15,000 gallon tenders, 578 
certainly did as  did 563.   
The  31 Dec  1955 listing shows  most of the Y-3’s and Y-3a’s with fish 
belly 18,000 gallon tenders with  some locomotives getting the ex-B&LE 22,000 
gallon tenders.    
For 1954, the  Y-3’s, Y-3a’s and Z-1’c could use the 16,000 or the 18,000, 
the E-2  would most likely have the 15,000 gallon tender.

All,

Tender  Question

I am working on:
Z1b, E2a, Y3, Y3a.
I have 3  18,000 gal tenders and 1 16,000 gal tender.

In 1954 which  of those engine would be the most likely to have the 16,000 
gal  tender.
E2a #578 got a 18,000 right? but was that later?
On  a Z1b what was the most typical tender in  '54.

Thanks,
John  Rhodes
