1941 Sears 8125 Set 229 0-2689TS plus 2800 cars

<< < (2/2)

Terry:
I got another 2666TS tender a few weeks ago. This new one came with a 1664 with the number RS in the recess for the plates and some 2800 series cars with nickel plates. 2812 in green, 3859, and 2817 red. I didn't realize what this was until I was sorting on Sunday and saw the tender.

Anyway, I just noticed this tender does not have an oval air hole for the whistle:

 

That's with a postwar 6466WX. So I went downsatirs and grabbed mine.  None of my plastic prewar tenders have the air hole:

 

Looking at the bottoms I have a 2666T, a 1666TS, and a the new 2666TS.

 

None of these had whistles in them.  Do any of the prewar plastic tenders have whistle holes? I think all the postwar ones do.
