Would anyone be able to post the differences in these two tenders? They look the same, or so it seems.
As I understand it, the true 2426W tenders, with the 1950 773s had an indentation in the shell out of the factory? Anyone got a photo of this to share?
Thanks!

No one knowledgeable on these?
The 2 shells and coal piles are the same, but that is about where it ends. Obviously the trucks are 6 wheel pre and postwar. The 226 had a metal bar that has a hole in it to fit over a peg in the locomotive for the drawbar. 2426 has a traditional postwar drawbar. The frame stamping is different for the trucks and lanced for the coupler centering spring. The font lettering is somwwhat different between the 2.
