Minus the coal load it's actually pretty close.
I'm assuming it wouldn't be hard to cut out the coal load, flatten the coal bunker, and put an oil fill on the top.
There’s some difference in the panels on the side of the tank, where it drops down over the drum. The cat walks appear to be all different, and some other fine details......but it looks like you could make a convincing SP tender out of the NYC model.....it can happen..........Pat
