They had a lot of Vandy tenders in Canada, but around here only the B&O had some of them. I really liked them on the South African Class 24 2-8-4's. They also had those 19D 4-8-2's with the long candy tenders, which everyone called "Torpedo" tenders. They were used on runs where there was long distances between water stops. I was lucky enough to see both types years ago.
