Peter,
Here are two citations that appear to be relevant. I found the citations at the Index of Magazine (see the top of this page):

GE Gas Turbine Model Railroader, September 1953, page 44 ( DRAWING, GAS, GE, "MILEUR, H.G.", TURBINE, UP, PROTOTYPE, MR )

Gas turbine plans in HO Railroad Model Craftsman, February 1954, page 36
( DRAWING, GAS, TURBINE, UP, LOCOMOTIVE, PROTOTYPE, RMC )

For photocopies of the articles, you will have to send the magazines an Email or
contact the NMRA's Kalmbach Memorial Library:

Perhaps someone else can suggest other sources, perhaps a book.
