I really like that photo.
The article Martin speaks of is for a 12,000 gallon tank,which is one size larger than this one. Stevenson has kits for that. In another article, how to build a Harriman Pacific, this exact tender is discussed, less the doghouse.
The postwar Lobaugh Vanderbilt tender supplied with their Pacific is this one, although the oil bunker is not shaped correctly and the underframe is from the prewar 12,000 gal tank. Bob will be better off with a 2" tube and some sheet and bar brass. Total cost under $20.
