Does anyone know if scale drawings have been produced for the Union Pacific ALCO C-855 diesel locomotive  and where they could be found. I've had no luck looking in the usual places.

I'm trying to collect/build each of the Union Pacific's double diesel engines and still have the C-855 to collect/build.

Finding a brass version is very difficult and go for stupid prices so may have to resort to scratch building/kitbashing.

Any help  would be appreciated.

Going through my books on Canadian railroads during the 50's, I noticed coal hoppers from the US on mainlines and branch lines. Was this common practice? I can't find any CNR coal hoppers in images south of the border.

I saw this photo from an NKP train and noted the signs on wooden poles on a corner of each gondola. We can't tell what they say but it's not something you see modeled very often.

I don't reach out for help much but I need to now. I don't know much about tank cars for hauling anhydrous and liquid fertilizers for the late 70's and in particular 1978. I have several Atlas 11,000 gallon tank cars listed for Anhydrous (Barrett, Olin, Mathieson, Spencer, and so on).
