Category:Tender Engines

A tender engine is a single-engined (having a single chassis, firebox, and boiler) Steam Locomotive (and in rare cases, Diesel Locomotive) that hauls a car (known as a tender) directly behind the locomotive that stores coal (occasionally wood or oil) and water.

Tender engines are usually main line engines, units, or locomotives while switchers, or shunters are known as tank engines.

Note that this category is not reserved for canon content. Fictional locomotives, including anthropomorphic ones are most certainly welcome to be added to this category.
