The Savannah and Atlanta used auxillary water tank cars behind the tenders on their ex NYO&W Mountains. What were the number series of these cars, and were they used behind other steam power besides the Mountains? Thanks, Tom Holley

A picture of one of these locos is in the CofGa Railway Album. The engine is numbered 445. The aux. tank appears to be a reconfigured tank car. It was numbered 401 for the NYO&W.
