Thanks for all of the input on this one.Here's what I'm thinking to call it for my eBay lisitng.

O Gauge Pennsylvania Streamlined Tender - MPC 2671W-6 body with Williams six wheel trucks.

Does that sound about right ?

 


In regard to the Williams trucks.  Did they make a truck that was identical to the old Lionel trucks for the Pullmans and the 2671W ?  How could they get away with copying Lionel so closely ?  I've just spent 20 minutes comparing trucks on the suject tender with my 2671W from 1948-49 and with the Pullman car Manhattan.  I even compsred several measeurements with the precision dividers from my drawing set.  I can find not the smallest difference in the plastic sideframes or wheels from all three kinds of trucks.
