Hi Folks,

I would like to know where I can get drawing of freight cars from around the early 1900’s?

I’m having a hard time finding what I want in N scale.

White’s “The American Railroad Freight Car”.

Train Shed Cyclopedias.

If you are in Omaha, NE the Simmons-Boardman Library has a 1905 Car Builder’s Dictionary and the public library has the minutes of the Master Car Builder’s Association from the 1890’s to the 1900’s.

Go to the google book site!

There are three editions of the Car Builder’s Dictionary out there free for the downloading.
