Now that the pictures can be seen, one can notice a difference between the small engine with tender and the small engine without tender. If you notice, the small engine without tender does NOT have the numer 317 on the side. Instead of the 317 (...) (23 years ago, 23-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct)

Just make sure you refer to them as "legos" in the film.
