RPCX 250001, auxiliary water tender  Contributor's Pick!       
This water tender or auxiliary water car is coupled to NKP 765, part of Trainfest 2011, at Rock Island, IL; 7-23-2011. I don't know the previous history of this water tender, the capacity, etc. ADDITIONAL NOTE: Thanks to Jerry LaBoda for helping identify this extra tender as a former L&N item. Also, I was able to delete the category from "locomotive", to no category. This was something that I didn't think was possible.

Jerry LaBoda General This auxilary tender is ex-L&N, formerly a "Big Eemma" tender. No N&W canteens survived scrapping so N&W had to resort to acquiring a couple of these cars that L&N had in MofW service to run with their steamers. 12/17/2011 1:12:28 AM
Tim Steeves General This is a Tender not a Locomotive. 3/17/2013 1:31:23 PM
Rev. Jonathan Spurlock General Thanks to Tim's comment, I was able to remove the category from "locomotive" to no category at all. 3/17/2013 9:53:59 PM
