Thanks to the people who helped me out finding a diagram for a UP RPO car. But I am also looking for diagrams for the CPR's draw bar connected container cars the rounded end type and the straight end type. Did these cars have smooth sides or were they all rippled? Also I am looking for a lot of good diagrams for the C&O 614 4-8-4 and the C&0 2-6-6-6 Allegheny. Were would be a good place to find these things? These are all the things right now that I want to give a shot in Gmax. What did club TA use to make the American Classics pack with so I can make these two steamers so they are made by the same tool? Were can I find the diagrams for the Commodore Vanderbilt and the none streamlined Hudson? Not trying to start anything.

Yup, I do it all the time. ... and yes, you do have to BUY those back issues to get the drawings...That's where EBAY comes in handy. Pete Willard http://www.trainsimstuff.com
Doesn't matter...You can make the drawings any scale you want after scanning...Note that all the dimensions are in actual feet. As long as you know the real dimensions of the object in question you can use the plans.One of the good things about TSM is the ability to scale the backdrop in a few clicks.
