Post subject:  Lists of CPR tenders without their locomotives?

Is there a list of surviving CPR steam tenders without their locomotives both in Canada and the USA?

I am interested in tracking down two CPR tenders that were recently being offered by museums? One museum had a GN or NP wood passenger car, CPR tender, CPR tank car up for offer or scrap?

Any of these two known to still exist? http://www.railpictures.ca/?attachment_id=6265

The very nice museum in Cranbrook, BC has a tender without an engine. There are photos of it on their web site. It may be one of the two in the photo from 1982.

Neither BC museum's current website seem to show photos for either tender?

There's a tender off a CPR D10 at Heritage Park in Calgary and one off a CPR Jubilee at the Alberta Central Railway Museum near Wetaskiwin, Alberta.

Hmm, Looks like the tender can just be made out behind the steam crane. http://yourrailwaypictures.com/HeritagePark/

Scroll down. There are two really good photos of it.

Besides the big 6 axle tender used by 2860 as an A-tank do any other large CPR tenders survive?

The one in Cranbrook, BC is a good size. It's off a 3100 I believe (there were only two) and it was used behind the Royal Hudson on BC Rail for a while.

I've been told the original tender for CPR 3101 survives. The 3101 has a Selkirk tender behind it currently. I contacted them to find out some more on the CPR tender.

Contacted who? The owner of 3101 is a private individual. He purchased it a few years ago, but it still has not been removed out of Regina.

Cranbrook BC railway museum.

3101 being sold is news to me. I thought it was owned by the scrapyard. CPR looked into buying 3101 a couple years ago.
