Weaver sold the tender as a separate sale item as it was a perfect improved die cast version of the tenders supplied by Pearce and All Nation.  That is why it is not lettered.  The Weaver tender was supplied with his poorly received pacific which was a die cast and extremely similar to the All Nation pacific.  He (Joe Hayter)  sold the pacific tooling to K-Line who did better with sales to the 3 rail crowd.

Actually, the Pacific was made for K-line. Weaver Models took the order because K-line closed right before these were finished. These Pacific engines sold very well for Weaver Models, I have one and I am still looking for another 2 rail version.
