Hi Richard,

Have been using the TSW on a steam locomotive tender.

I got confused when I selected the 'Inlet point' as I assumed this was the water inlet, however it is actually the coal inlet position.

As there are two available inlets on tenders, one each for coal and water, and I would assume most users would use the water one, if you are upgrading TSW at some time, please add the water one as well.

Thanks, Mike.

agree - I thought that too!

A tender can hold water?  :-[

Hi Richard,

Yes, tenders consist of a coal bunker and a water tank (up to around 5000 gallons in the UK, probably a lot more in some of the big U.S. steamers).

Entries in the tender .wag file should be like

IntakePoint ( 0.528039 0.9898214 FuelCoal )
IntakePoint ( -2.3 2.0 FuelWater )

Mike.
