Tyler Cherry	General	Do you have any idea what was being transported in this tender (I figure it is either sand, water, or used engine oil)?	12/27/2009 4:22:36 PM

The Slidebroker image by John Hill	General	Good question. I don't know but my guess would be water for emergency grass fire fighting.	12/27/2009 4:51:36 PM

Tyler Cherry	General	Thank you John, I've added this prototype to the list of prototypes I want to build in 'S' scale 1:64	12/27/2009 8:31:12 PM

Cody White	General	These two cars were used for steam heat for the turntable in winter months to melt snow and ice in the pit. In the summer months it was used to heat the roundhouse if the temps dipped just below freezing. The roundhouse had a power house to generate steam in the winter to heat the roundhouse, but was shut down in the warmer months. It was also used to thaw ore pockets on the docks at Allouez sometimes.	3/5/2017 9:34:59 PM
