Bob, I don't know for sure, but I seem to remember reading that it is ex-C&O. It is a USRA 12,000 gal. design.

I'd take a guess as its possiably a ex C&O tender there is another RR around that has an old C&O vandy tender. Funny how the tenders out lived the locomotives.

There was a C&O Vanderbilt tender in Baltimore as part of the B&O Museum over-flow collection at Mt. Clare up until last Summer. It had been supposedly aquired by the WMSR, but last I heard, it was still in Baltimore. At the time it was shown in the tracking system as being at Locust Point yard. Not sure where it is now.
