Have a look under the trailer for a 1/2 inch piece of PEX pipe with a cap on it. That's where we found ours. It was under the kitchen about in the middle of the trailer.
Our previous TT had a regular pull type knife valve. Takes forever to drain the tank with the little PEX fitting.

Look under the camper in the area where the fill is for the fresh water. On mine the drain is under the camper but in line with the fill on the side of the camper.

Fresh tanks? No, just one.
The red and blue ones are the low point drains. They allow you to drain all the water from the supply lines to faucets and such. Blue is cold water, red is hot water. You have to open those valves and the faucet handles.

Thanks
I got most of it figured out but the white water connection above city water. See pic.
I have an ice maker drain that was an addendum.

One the low point drains in the pic, are they screw-type valves or pull-push -type valves for the drains?

Those are push pull and it helps when you go to pull or push to slightly twist while pushing or pulling..
I would also remove them once a season and lubricate the seals on the valve handles to make them easy to use, drip free and trouble free

Thanks ! I saw them on my Alpine, and have not had to use them yet , as it is set up full time in an RV Park. I knew I would need to use them if it gets bitter cold and I would need to drain them.

You should use them at least once a year when you sanitize your water system. Even though you are full time in the RV park the water heater and entire water system needs some routine care...
