Bill,

 

I have an in service shot of G-5 #509 at Aurora,IL in Feb 1952(courtesy of Hol Wagner) which I am reserving for a future Bulletin so I prefer not share at this time. I think the shot I have is the orginal unmodified tender it doesnt look anything like the one attached to 504 at NSW. Per "Steam Locomotives of the Burlington" these were all scrapped in '54.

 

The coal bunker on 509 is straight sided and theres room for the coal scoop to be laying on the flat surface on the water tank alongside the coal bunker. No supporting braces.Cookcoo clock headlight on rear of tender.

 

Sorry to be selfish but I've been holding this great shot as it will be one of the center pieces of the Alley Job article.

NSW used all kinds of combinations on tenders used on their ex CB&Q and later ex GTW 0-8-0's.  In later years they used KCS tenders behind their GTW 0-8-0's.

The Q had 10 original USRA 0-6-0 locomotives, numbered 500 - 509. I found a photo of no. 504 after it had been sold to Northwest Steel and Wire for scrap. They used it as one of their plant switchers for a while. In the photo, it has an unusual tender coal bunker which matches a Sunset O scale model that I recently purchased. It is not the standard USRA tender and it is not like other modified tenders on Q USRA 0-6-0s. Here is a link to the photo at NWS&W.

Does anyone know where I can find a photo of the same locomotive while it was in service on the Q? I would like to confirm that the tender, as shown at NWS&W, was also used by the Q so I can use the model as is.

BTW, the photo in RR Photo Archives is, for some reason, for sale right now on EBay. It may be a copy.
