Amtrak Fuel Tender 400
Title:  Amtrak Fuel Tender 400
Description:  The piece of equipment was built as Baltimore & Ohio E9 number 34 in 1955, and was subsequently B&O 1454 and Amtrak 400. In the late 1970's, Amtrak gutted the unit and installed the water tanks from four retired SDP40F's, creating a 9300-gallon fuel tender. It was tried on different trains, but wasn't widely used; and is shown here stored at New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal.
