This is an inside view of the steam powered tender truck from the B&M 3713 Locomotive. The engineer had the option to apply steam to the front tender truck to give an added push. I am told that when the restoration crew applied compressed air the truck worked well, despite it not being used for many decades! The frame up restoration is going quite well despite a few delays.
