I noticed my Mantua 2-6-2 has a very heavy tender. I know some weight is needed for good electrical pick up. I also hear if too heavy, it'll hender overall tractive effort at the coupler. I wanna take some weight off the floor where it's raised at. Not flush, just enough. I feel as if the tender weighs almost the same as the engine. Will this be an issue to remove some weight? I want a little heft.
