I am freelance modeling an area of the Santa Fe R.R. resembling the Cajon Pass area. Stupid as it sounds I can't find any pictures of end of the track bumpers (as used at the end of yard tracks). I want to subsitute my Atlas stock bumpers with custom made ones made from rail sections, with steel plates I recently purchased at a train show. How close is that to prototype? How are they painted, or are they just rusty? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
