Is that a pair of cylinders to a Life-Like/Tyco 0-4-0?

Ah, similar in structure I see, but without the screw-hole up top.

You know those ones under their 0-4-0s?

Yes, I have 2 or 3 of those, from engines that stopped working years ago.

Ah, I have a saddle-tank, works really well and the wheels are meticulously cleaned. I also have the tender version, a very old one, which I have in the open-air on my layout on display in the park next to a Tyco ten-wheeler.
