Burro Crane Plans

Model Railroader Prototype information for the modeler

I’m looking for scale drawings of either a model 30 or 40 Burro Crane. The reason…well I’ll probably get some flak for this, but I’d like to make one for Microsoft Train Simulator (MSTS). And they could come in handy for my HO layout as well.

Any help is appreciated.

I don’t have plans, but I do have a couple of pics of one not too far from here.

Thanks for the pics. Looks to be a model 40 in pretty good condition considering it’s CSX. I haven’t seen many in my area (BNSF) for a long time now. Used to be a bunch all over the place when it was the Santa Fe.

I took those this last summer. Sorry, but no measurements, and the yard is locked up now.

Sitting a few feet away was this…
