In addition to the books recommended by other respondents, I'd join the Great Northern Historical Society (1781 Griffith, Berkley, MI 48072). There's a Web site link from this page under Historical Societies. Atlas makes a wide-cupola caboose in the 1969 Big Sky Blue scheme and the earlier red scheme. BTW, the merger that created the BN occurred on March 3, 1970. After the merger, locomotives and rolling stock in NP, GN, Spokane, Portland & Seattle, and CB&Q livery could be seen up through the mid-1970s, with some rolling stock in their pre-merger paint into the 1990s. I saw several NP boxcars and chip gons on the Washington Central. Paul Schmidt Associate Editor MODEL RAILROADER
