Ok, did some digging into my reference books, found plenty of Hudson's with Feedwater heaters. the majority were square and well set on the hood in front of the smokestack, there were a few with cyclinders encased in the hood and did not sit on top of the hood, but were visible with round extrusions on both sides. None had one prominatly sitting on top of the hood. <br /> <br />After reviewing the references and again looking at the pictures, it is indeed the Airtank, as suspected, There is an obvious line from the tank to a box just between the rear set of driver's, which is also connected to a line t the cab that would confirm this. As stated, i think the spot the Airtank was (under the running boards), has been commondered for some required equipment to bring the engine up to code, yet not deter from the look of the era, thus they moved the Airtank to the top of the hood. <br /> <br />Jay
