The remains of the Farmington tank were stored at the far end of the S&S property, near Highway 52, and all I remember seeing of it the was the pile of redwood staves, which, over time, gradually diminished to almost nothing as neighbors (or whoever) made off with them. I don't remember seeing any support timbers or a spout, but there was a lot of "stuff" at the S&S and it may have been around somewhere. I think the museum only got the La Boca tank stuff as I don't think there was anything left of the Farmington tank by the time of the auction.
