Reply to "Lionel tender identification question"

Well this is an interesting combination of information.

Found some notes. Your shell is part number 8304T-7.

Thanks Mr. Burtle.  What does that part number tell us about date and place of manufacture ?  I took the shell off the tender and can't find that number in it.  The only identifying number is 2671W-6, which is in that small rectangle on the lower right corner of the rear end.

BTW, I maintain a state of deliberate ignorance about 1970 and later - 1945 to 1949 is enough to get my mind around.  At times I accidenatally acquire a piece from that era that I want to turn into money.

Someone asked about a whistle.  No whistle and not a scratch in the paint around the whistle mounting holes that might indicate there had been one.
