There is another that looks similar, which is the "Hicken" style tender. By the end of the steam era on the SP, they were all gone, since only the largest of the steam fleet lasted until the very end. The GS class Daylights and the last of the big cab forwards had long since adopted the familiar, if nondescript, rectangular tenders, although the AC classes did run the Vandies through and including class AC-5.

Earlier classes of cab forward articulated, class MC and MM, more often than not ran with "whaleback" tenders, so named for their humped shape.

Does anybody know the cost of the train would be to newbury from shrewsbury?

THis one would be a good one to google. But, to make google give you what you want, one trick is to force it with "inverted commas"
For instance, try "vanderbilt tender" and other words. But put the inverted commas round the words otherwise google will give you everything with those words in, except for exactly what you want! Good luck!

Can I get to Farringdon Train station in London without going on the Tubes?

I know they came into use prior to WW I in the US.
This would apply to railroads generally west of the Mississippi and convenient sources of coal, around that time. One early example was Southern Pacific 4 - 6 - 0 , # 2368 built by ALCO in 1913. There was a 1904 Oregon RR and Navigation Pacific # 190 and that same year ALCO built the SP Pacific # 2400. The Kansas City Southern had an 0-6-6-0 ( # 710 ) in 1912 - also an ALCO, ( American Locomotive Company ). I would guess right after Spindletop came in in 1901, railroads quickly adapted to oil buring where it made good sense.
The earliest date I see is 1904 however
