This is fascinating.

I have one concern that freezing weather would've played havoc on this if it was the engine water supply. I can't tell if there is any evidence of a heater set-up under the tank.

The other thought is that maybe this was a water tank for supplying the water tank car which hauled this commodity to the mines. In that case perhaps it wasn't for the engines.
