Yes, that is the water tank used by switch engines working the Purington branch.  In later years after the pump house and tank were dismantled and the Q started used Purington water or East Galesburg city water for the branch, a standpipe was erected in the nearly exact same location of the tank.  The remnants of this standpipe stood in place until the branch was abandoned in the late 1970's.
