Found this while nosing around for info on this locomotive. They seem to be moving right along...

Didn't the 557 come with a tender when it was purchased?

I believe it did, but it wasn't original to the #557 and the Mausuem of Alaska Transportation and Industry had either the original tender or an identical one in there collection that will be used instead.

I was kinda impressed with their site. It seems like people in this hobby/profession are always looking for info and pictures, this seems to be a really good way to keep your project "out there" and perhaps keep the donations coming in....

Cheers,Dave
