Indeed the 483's tender frame was bent in the wreck in Bocea Hill. The tank was tweeked too. The tank had several seams welded up and a large patch applied to one corner.
To further Mark Y's post. There are at least a couple tanks with the BLW code stamped on the upper right side tank leg near the coal doors. I think 484's tank is double stamped with two numbers ("1" over "2").
