Southern Tender

This Southern Railroad tender looks simple to the casual eye but don't be fooled. While it clearly started out as a wedge tender, once we get past the sides there is little recognizable. Fred's attention to detail is remarkable. More remarkable is his determination and ability to put those little details into metal. Where some of us are content to suggest a detail or forget it altogether, Fred lets loose the whole nine yards.
Now, if we could just get him to do some engines!
