Does anyone know if the UP 4014 Big Boy that is coming out with the LC 2.0 in the new catalog will have a coal tender, or the new oil tender that the actual engine will be fitted with?

Even though that model is not pictured in the catalog I'm assuming that it's coming with a coal tender. Two reasons for this. First it's not mentioned in the catalog that it's going to be different and second they already have the tooling for the LM BB coal tender. I could be wrong of course. 
...I'm more concerned that the catalog states that it is 29" long, and can run on a minimum O31 curve? This is highly suspicious.

I have the previous release of this model and I can assure you about the 031 curves. It looks funny on sharp curves like that but can negotiate them!
