Si.

A very interesting water tank.

However, unless I get a copy of the Kaslo & Slocan Rly. plan book,

with the water tanks built in 1895, one of 25,000 gals, the smaller 9,600 gals,

I will not! be building another water tank.

More then enough to keep me busy,

with a second construction article to write up,

and finish the WP&Y Rly. tank car #11

Still need to build a frame for the tank to sit on.

Found a static French Railcar, again by Atlas,
that has a similar concept like those Northwest speeders,
symmetrical body, center entrance, cab on top.

So checked which drive might fit underneath.
A German "Schienenbus VT98" drive fits like it is made for it !

Finished the conversion in one day.
