Sometimes I can find what I'm looking for at the N&W Historical Society site.

http://www.nwhs.org/index.php

 

They have thousands of prints scanned. For example:

http://www.nwhs.org/archivesdb/detail.php?ID=52392

The above drawing predates USRA but you can search further...

Once you get the hang of searching and you can find the locomotive class you are looking for there's lots of useful information here.

Good Luck, Ed

Wow! Glad to help out! Sometimes I forget about those fascinating web sites that have tons of information available, then when a need comes up... Indifferent there it is!

Glad you found what you needed and I'm glad all the folks at the N&W Historical Society took the time to make the information available.

Regards, Ed
