Obeck,

Yahoo has some discussion sites that may be able to help.   I know the Chicago, Ottawa, and Peoria has a site.  COandPRRgroup on Yahoo will probably be able to point you in the direction you need.  You may want to look up the Illinois Traction Society.  It has info on the Illinois Terminal.

Hope this helps,

Bob L.

Modeling in N scale: Rock Island freight and passenger, with a touch of  the following;  Wabash Cannon Ball,  CB&Q passenger, and ATSF freight and passenger.   I played in Peoria (Heights).

Close. May 1965 MR, page 46 to be exact. A Wm Clouser plan.

The next 4 or 5 pages is then devoted to building a rubber band drive for a class C.

I can't help on drawings directly. You might try the Illinois Railway Museum, as IIRC they may have such documentation among their collection.

For more pics, I highly recommend Dale Jenkins' "The Illinois Terminal Railroad: the Road of Personalized Service." (White River Productions, 2005.)

Looking for plans or information on ITC Class C loco.  Want to build one in O scale.  Been on my bucket list for a while.  Found some pictures, but so far no dimensions.

Thanks for any information you can direct me to, or supply.
