    I appreciate this is a few steps back but just to clarify, I suspect that the NVR won't need the tender back until after the 9F's current ticket is up. City of Peterborough still looks a way off yet.

    WC with a stanier tender should be doable I'd have thought......

    I stand to be corrected but I don’t think it’s as simple as just connecting a tender from loco type A to loco type B, especially if they are from different railways.

    BR managed it during the loco exchanges where they fitted a Stanier tender to a bullied Pacific so it could use water troughs. I would have thought water connections standard now and you may need a new connector bar but not impossible. Picture here.
