	MIXED TRAFFIC LOCOMOTIVES
		The chief dimensions of this locomotive are: cylinders 18-1/2 in.
		In theory, the advantage of the tank over the tender engine for runs of moderate length is that with the former power is not wasted in hauling about a heavy tender with greater supplies of coal and water than the engine normally requires.
		But just as in British main line working the tendency is to equip the locomotives with tenders of progressively increasing size—the striking new standard tenders of the L.M.S. with their high curved sides offer a good example of this development—so the tank engine tends to go out of favour for intermediate main line work.

		On large locomotives it is usually placed behind the cab but on small ones (especially 0-4-0 tanks) the bunker(s) may be on one side, or both sides, of the firebox.
		Most tender locomotives are unable to do this, because the heavy tender is not designed to be pushed and may become unstable at higher speeds.
		Tender locomotives generally require turning facilities, such as a turntable or wye, at each end of the run.

	Steam Locomotive Tenders
		Tenders for such locomotives were designed with a sloping rear -- reducing the capacity for water, but allowing better visibility to the rear.
		This tender is also sometimes referred to as a "pedestal" tender because of the shape of the container -- slightly smaller at the bottom which had "pedestal" for supporting the five rigid axles.
		Auxiliary tenders or canteen cars, used to supplement water capacity on road locomotives and were reasonably common during the steam period.

	SNCF 232 U1
		This beautiful locomotive, designed under the direction of Marc de Caso, and completed by Corpet-Louvet in 1949, was the result of a reassessment of the performance of 4-6-4 locomotives made after WW II by the Companie de NORD.
		Prior to the war, it was planned to built eight streamlined locomotives to haul light weight trains at high speeds.
		All European 4-6-4s, tender or tank locomotives, are know as "Baltics." The name "Hudson" is American and came from the New York Central 4-6-4s which in 1927 first serviced the water level route along the Hudson River.

	The LNER 2-8-0 Locomotives
		The LNER had a large number of heavy freight 2-8-0 locomotives.
		Although the LNER constructed and developed a few 2-8-0 types itself, the bulk of the LNER's 2-8-0 locomotives were purchased as war surplus locomotives after World War 1 (O4 ROD) and World War 2 (O7 'Austerity' WD).
		Also included in this index are the WD 'Austerity' 2-10-0 locomotives, and the USATC S160 Lend-Lease locomotives.

	Steam locomotive basics - section 3, tank locomotives
		Tank locomotives carry a supply of coal behind the cab in a bunker that often covers a small supplementary water tank.
		The water was carried in tanks fitted between the frames of the locomotive, however this form of engine never found favour in Britain but was widely used in Continental Europe usually in conjunction with smaller side tanks.
		For example, the Great Western at the time of Grouping in 1923 had 3944 locomotives, 2442 of which were tanks, however US railroads had a few for commuter trains but shunting was entrusted to six- and eight-wheeler tender locomotives.

	Natural gas locomotives
		The 800 mile range per locomotive pair far exceeds the 80-100 mile reach that the same tender filled with CNG would provide.
		To maintain such low temperatures the tender car is of a double walled stainless steel "thermos bottle" design, capable of keeping the LNG cold for as long as 14 days.
		From the outside it looks like a diesel tender car, but actually is a stainless steel double walled refrigeration storage vessel, which keeps fuel at -260 degrees F for up to 14 days.

		Early locomotives had tall chimneys to carry the exhaust clear of the driver's line of sight but, as boilers increased in size, the height of chimneys was reduced to keep locomotives within loading gauge requirements.

	4-6-4 Information
		The world speed record for steam locomotives was at least twice held by a 4-6-4; the Milwaukee Road's class F6 #6402 in 1934 with 103.5 mph, and German 05 002 in 1936 with 124.5 mph (200.4 km/h).
		The first 4-6-4 tender locomotive was built in 1927 by ALCO for the New York Central Railroad, and to the NYC's design.
		The only 4-6-4 tender locomotive in Great Britain was LNER No. 10000, built in 1930 as an experimental high-pressure compound locomotive with an experimental water-tube boiler, and known as the "hush-hush" locomotive on account of the great secrecy with which it was built.

	STEAM LOCOMOTIVE TENDER LIVERIES
		Each region or railway zone had a unique livery applied to the tenders of its steam locomotives, with a cream or yellow band running all along on the sides of the running plate (walkways on either side of the engine).
		Note that it was rather difficult to match the exact shade that appeared on the locomotive tenders proper, but I have tried to achieve this with the greatest degree of accuracy possible.
		tender locos and around the smoke deflectors, I think this was according to local depots wishes, Mysore YPs certainly sported different colours in their outling details and tender tank tops..and Bangalore WD shunters were in pass livery with non - standard colur on the tender top.

	Growth of Independent Technology
		Tender locomotives and more powerful locomotives capable of running on gradients were imported along with tank locomotives for use in the railway built between Kobe, Osaka and Kyoto after 1874.
		In 1876, two C (0-6-0) tender locomotives with a driving wheel diameter of 3'7" (1,092 mm) for freight transport were converted into 2B (4-4-0) tender locomotives with a driving wheel diameter of 4'6 4/5" (1,397 mm) for passenger transport.
		Thirty-three such locomotives were built at the government Kobe works from 1895 to 1908, 23 at Sanyo Railways' Hyogo works from 1896 to 1906, and seven at Nippon Railways' Omiya works from 1901 to 1906.

	2-6-2 tender locomotives (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		The only British mainline 2-6-2 locomotives were the Gresley V2 ("the locomotive which won the War") and V4 designs, although both Maunsell and Bulleid had sought to produce designs for the Southern, but the Civil Engineer was against leading pony trucks following the Sevenoaks derailment of a K class 2-6-4T.
		Coleman also sketched out a 2-6-2 design which would have filled a major gap on the WCML where small 4-6-0s were ill-suited to the northern section on either freight or passenger.Rutherford gave two excellent Railway Reflections on the type within a global context.
		British development is confined to an Ivatt proposal and to a possible Churchward design (he participated in a discussion on a paper by Cowan on American locomotive design).

		This section, unlike that for the earlier period of LandYR locomotive history will follow the pattern adopted on most of the website: tender locomotives in the order eight-coupled>four coupled and tender types before tank engines.
		Poultney's British express locomotive development captures the dramatic entry of Aspinall's Atlantics: "In 1899 there was turned out of the Horwich Works of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway a large locomotive of an entirely new type and of singularly fine proportions, its massive high-pitched boiler standing with its centre line 8 ft. 11 in.
		The class was fitted with the Aspinall vacuum-operated reversible water pickup scoop and was clearly intended as an express locomotive: hence the joy of the express headlamps on the Huddersfield to Wakefield connection.
