I am mocking up a sp 120-c-8 tender for use behind a P-8 pacific I want to build in brass. I have the tank all nice and CADed up, but I am having trouble finding pictures of the top of the tender to know what details to put there. I have some good shots of 2479's tender side, but nothing from the top. Also, if anyone knows of some head on views so I can get the details right on the front of the tender, it would be much appreciated.
 
Lucky for you I'm an Espee brass freak. Hope these help:

What a cool tender! :)

That gives me an idea for a shorty version with a small tank and one 6 wheeled truck. :)
