Unusual steam

[NW Mailing List]

Bud,
Would the blow down be located near the rear tender truck? Usually I have seen them somewhere near the firebox.

I was just watching a youtube video on N&W articulateds. At about 24:19 there's a scene with a Y-class running by itself with a large amount of steam coming from what appears to be the center of the tender. What would that be coming from there?
