There are several books out about milk trains and milk cars...check Trains and Classic Trains adverstising, your local hobby shop, and railroad museum and tourist line stores for the books. O&W Chapt., NRHS has published several.   Bob Bahrs has written several.  Then check back issumes of  model magazines like Model Railorader.
