Whereabouts of 611 and 1218 Excursion Service Auxilliary Tenders

[nw-mailing-list at nwhs.org]

I think it sat behind the 1218 for a bit after the engien was put back in, but the last time I was there, I seem to remember it was down near the end of the fence, sittin in the open, on the west end of the property.

May not be any help for you but there is a Big Emma tender in Atlanta at the 
Southeastern Railway Museum. It was due for the same fate as the two NS had 
converted but it never happened. I have pictures at:

The Emma is the 1966 tender, 271 is off a 4-6-2 and is smaller.

Where does VMT keep the bottle, I was there last summer and do not remember 
seeing it.
