Streamlined steam locomotive diagrams/drawings
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, January 28, 2005 4:06 PM
I am currently working on a colored poster depicting streamlined steam locomotives. Over the years I have been able to collect drawings of quite a few of the above mentioned locomotives to continue progress, but I have come to a dead end when it comes to a few locomotives (Southern's 1380, C&O's L-1 492, Reading's Crusader, Frisco's Firefly, T&NO's 700, CP's F-1a Jubilee, Seaboard Air Line's 868 and the two UP streamliners).

Can anyone out there in ciber land furnish scanned diagrams (or simple drawings) of the locomotives mentioned above? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated!

To be able to include all of the locomotives on one poster I am working in N scale and only the profiles will be shown.

Ljtrauth,
Welcome to the MR Forums !
Have you done searches for the drawings that you are missing using the Index of Magazines at the top of the page at this site ? If you find citations for the drawings, then you will have to obtain photocopies, either from the magazine's publisher's Web site or from the NMRA's Kalmbach Memorial Library:

The NMRA's fee is reasonable, even for non-members.
