    Interesting to see on the "going away" shot in the gallery linked above that 46115 appears to have an amount of loose coal stacked in the space at the rear of the tender, on top of the water tank where the tank lid is.
    Would have thought that was a bit risky for the crew of 5690 behind? The coal does not appear to be netted over.
