I own a semi built Bowser big boy. I have a Rivarossi tender of the 70's run. How can I convert it use with my Bowser?

Make sure the tender has electrical pickup from the left rail, permanently attach it to the drawbar, and run a wire from the motor to the tender. Some of the Rivarossi tenders don't have any electrical pickup at all, so you may have to add wipers.
