Nice work Lutz, Is that an older project that you reposted pictures of ? If so, is still impressive.
For this week I have a few shots of the High Iron companies A-tank, 759. She was converted from a N&W tender, most likely an older 2-6-6-2 that was surplus. She saw many miles riding behind NKP 759 in excursion service, but interior rust has sidelined her unless a new cistern is construction. This tank also saw service as a water source for a steam crane before it's time with the big Berk. Just another example of the usefulness of the often overlooked tender. She now rests in the yard of Steamtown at Scranton PA.
Next week I'll have to highlight some tender modeling.
