I am tring to build a model of the M4 class of Yellowstone on the Duluth Missabe and Iron Range. Where can I find a detailed set of plans? Also, any suggestions on a model I could kit bash?
Thanks
Mike

Mike,
I just did a keyword search at the
Index of Magazines
. Here's the link:
http://index.mrmag.com/tm.exe?opt=S&cmdtext=YELLOWSTONE&sort=A&output=3&view=25
There are at least three citations for the
DM&IR
M4s, along with a bunch of other articulateds.

You might want to check the DMIR historical society site too. Dont know about plans, but they have plenty of pictures and you can order the correct decals directly from them.

Hi Mike,
Drawings of the DM&IR class M-4 Yellowstone are included in "The Model Railroader Cyclopedia, Vol. 1: Steam Locomotives," from Kalmbach. See the Shopping section of this Web site.
Good luck,
Andy

I bought some DMIR blueprints on ebay from "coolstuffyoucanuse" at that time he had some yellowstone blueprints that were over 12 foot long he was trying to sell. I couldn't afford them or hang them anywhere. Drop him a note through ebay he might still have them. he was great to work with on my stuff.
