The tender will stay behind? If so, what tender will it operate with?

Maybe the Vanderbilt tender from the UP #440? Regards, John.

A 2-8-0 with a Vanderbilt tender? Nice...reminiscent of the Pittsburg Shawmut and Northern.

Returning to the original topic....

The #2425 finally left the Ironhorse Railroad Park yesterday! It is bound for the Mineral Range shops in Ishpeming, Michigan.

The tender for #2425 (which is actually from 2426) will remain behind and will stay in the Ironhorse collection. Apparently moving costs exceeded value.



The tender.

NS 3322 -

Neat "clear vision" tender. Perhaps the Ironhorse Railroad Park has a future use for it.
