Hi all ...I am looking for a Rivarossi 14-wheeler tender to go with a Rivarossi Challenger 3800 Denver & Rio Grande Western. I need to replace a damaged one which came with a Rivarossi Challenger on eBay. Ideally I'd go for the Rio Grande version but any other road would do in the absence of the original Rio Grande. The catalog number on the Challenger box reads "1598 4-6-6-4 Challenger Rio Grande N. 3800" (probably a 1995 manufacture). Please note that I'm after an unused or a tender in very good condition. If you have one that you can spare please let me know price etc. Thanks ..Edgar

On Ebay they go regularly in the $50-60 range. Ironically, I went through this very search a couple years ago because my '70s Big Boy came with a mismatched '90s Challenger tender. After shopping Ebay for months, I concluded that those tenders were going for way too much and simply touched over the Challenger numbers and redid them with dry transfersEdited by - shaygetz on February 07 2010 11:55:35 AM
