Oil Bunker FOR My Bachmann Connie

I bought this oil bunker from the estate of Jim Francis. It is a beautiful, detailed casting. But I’m not real sure how it is orientated in the tender. Would the two hatch covers on the rear of the bunker face forward or to the rear, as in the photo? I’m open to suggestion

To the rear so it could be operated from the deck like the water hatch…

Thanks Bart.

If I could see the top, that would be great!

I finally got the photo to post.

How about this?

(That’s a photo someone sent me years ago … I don’t know whose it is, and will take it down if anyone has an issue.)

Matthew,

That’s perfect! Exactly like I have it now! Thank you.
