Empty weight of tender

[nw-mailing-list at nwhs.org]

I have a new light weight for the 22K tenders. The new weights are listed after they were modified to a flat top cistern and a larger coal bunker, and this applies to all 22K N&W [not those purchased from other roads] tenders in late steam. The new light weight was 135,200 pounds.

  I sent this reply before but I misstated the loaded weight of the 22K tenders.

  There is an N&W document giving scrap values for tenders. ALL N&W 22,000 gal. tenders were listed for "Light weight -new" as 127,600 pounds in this document.

  Tender weights did vary a little but each carried about 250,000 pounds of coal and water when full. The listed weights for all N&W 22,000 gal. tenders was 378,600 pounds regardless of locomotive class assigned.

  Hope this helps.

          What is the empty weight of a Class J's 22,000 gal. tender?

          Thanks in advance,
