Well, then you should do it. Buy an engine with a tender, and then get an additional tender. Get some paint and decals and go to town.
Y'see, that's why Model Railroading can be so much fun.
It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.
I've got one of those, and it's not as RARE as the seller claims it to be. It's a Rivarossi model that was possibly sold by the thousands around 10-15 years ago. I don't remember the exact year that I bought mine, but it was available for quite a while.

I thought that Bachmann Spectrum did that with their N&W Passenger Js- you get an additional auxillary H20 Tender (unless this is another manufacturer I am thinking of).
Modeling the N&W freelanced at the height of their steam era in HO.

Bachmann has 2-3 versions of the N&W J. The fantrip J comes with the extra tender. You can always buy the tender as a separate item.
I'd like to see Bachmann put their motor in a boxcar frame. It would be the first cheater boxcar.
