I think I found my answer

[NW Modeling List]

On the N&W, tenders were given separate numbers, and never carried engine numbers. This enabled the tenders to be exchanged between engines if it was felt necessary. The tenders also had their separate classes as well. The tenders used behind the Y6b were classed as I.

N&W did not number the tenders as when the engine went in for servicing
they could get a different tender.
The data on the rear was water capacity in gallons and the coal capacity
below the headlight if you checked the links.
