The Illinois Central heavy freight power was 4-8-2's in the 2500 and 2600 series. The locomotives were basically the same but the 2600's had large six wheel truck tenders with a larger water capacity. The 2500's had smaller 4-wheel truck tenders which carried less water. To make up for this shortcoming the 2500's typically ran with a small auxiliary tender which carried only additional water.
