ACF diner

Can someone help me locate plan#/lot#/floor plans for an ACF 48 seat diner made in 1949-1950? Would be for UP 4800-4816 series or C&NW 6956, 6959. Some of the UPs ended up as Amtraks ( 8093, 8096) and ACRs ( 505), if it helps. I found nothing searching the mags under "diner".
Thanks,
DC

Lot number for the 4800 series UP diners was 3032.
CNW had four of the same cars numbered 6956-6959 built as lot number 3040.
There's a plan (diagram, really) of the car on page 39 of William W. Kratville and Harold E. Ranks' book "Union Pacific Equipment". The book is currently available.
