Hello,
as first thanks for the fast answer.
On your question it is not something exactly this I seeks.
I actually look for Blueprints or copies of original drawings to the after-den.

Oldsam_de,
At the top of this page there is a function Index of Magazines that allows you to search for magazine article citations for a specific topic. This link:
http://index.mrmag.com/tm.exe?opt=S&cmdtext=GE+U50&MAG=ANY
takes you to a keyword search for GE U50 articles. This search did not find any engineering drawings for the U50, just photos. If you do find a citation for an article then you have to obtain a photocopy of the article, since I don't think back issues of these magazines are easy to find in Germany. You can contact each magazine's publisher to learn if they will sell you a photocopy, or you can go to the NMRA's Kalmbach Memorial Library:
http://www.nmra.org/library/
and request them to make the photocopies. Their rate is reasonable, even for a non-member. Another possible source for plans would be the UP historical society:
