1050-T Slope-Back Tender

According to Greenberg's Guide to Lionel Trains vol. VII, the 1050-T can be identified by its arch-bar trucks. Other Postwar slope-back tenders had truck detail that was solid, rather than having the gaps (clearly visible in the top left photo below.) This example shows signs of having been run on someone's layout, but only has the light scratches that come from being handled. The photos capture what little scuffing there is.
