I have been trying to uncover the origin and makeup of the tender that rests behind C-16 No. 268 in Gunnison. From where and what did the tank and frame come? And when? On page 56 of the Jan/Feb 2005 Gazette, Mallory Ferrell states "in 1949, #268 got a new tender that appears to have come from a scrapped K-27." In its shape and rivit pattern it does appear to be a K-27 tender tank. If true, the frame, floor, and platform are definetly not from a K-27. The long deck behind the tank confirms this. Can anyone shed some light?
Thanks - Kenneth
