2671w-6 and 8050-t tenders
Posted by silentman on Tuesday, October 4, 2011 3:37 PM

Wondering if anyone had any info on which locomotive I can use for these two tenders. One is the 2671w-6 (Milwaukee Road) and 8050-t (C&O) They both have male plugs to connect to the locomotive. My neighbor gave them to me so was just wondering which locomotives might work. Thanks!!

Here are some wild guesses:

For the Milwaukee, the 8305 4-4-2 from 1973.

For the C&O, the 8304 4-4-2 from 1974, which number was also used for Rock Island, B&O, and Pennsylvania locomotives.

The tethers would be for "electronic sound of steam".  Do both tenders have dummy couplers?

silentman,

 I have a 8142 that came with the 8050-t but someone has taken out the sound of steamm electrics.

So it would work on it as well. You can pick one of these loco cheap on E-bay.
