I recommend Don Ross's website for any kind of train photos
http://donsdepot.donrossgroup.net/

Here are his CB&Q Burlington Pacifics:

The Chicago Rock Island and Pacific had many series of 4-6-2s here is just one of them:

and another, but there are others on the website itself

And here is Union Pacific
