Louis,
Thanks for the photo as I have been looking for
one for several years. I have a couple of questions for anyone the
list who can provide an answer. Was the handrail always offset to the side
or did some come down the center line. The only oil tender I have
seen is FW&D’s 304 in Wichita Falls, which has a centered hand rail?
Was there a steam line inside the bunker to heat the oil so it would flow?
An earlier post mentioned a slight amount of air pleasure to help push the oil
out so where would the relief valve be on this tender?
Thanks again for the photo.

Scott - I've attached Jonathan's cropped image showing the topside of
5632's tender. You can clearly see the sand box pipe cover just back from the
cab roof, as well as the Bunker C fuel oil lid cover at the rear of the tender,
each at far ends from each other so there would be no mistake in filling.....
Thanks Jonathan, your image answers a lot of questions. Best Regards -
Louis
