    Question; did the D15s ever run with 'watercart' tenders in BR days? - I think I have only ever seen photos of them with 6w tenders.

    Appreciate any info - thanks.

    Bradley states that all 10 had 6 wheel tenders in exchange for their water carts in 1925 / 6. And they had to be the 13'-0" WB version of 3,500 gallon tender so as to fit on the table at Fratton Loco.
