The Newberry Library in Chicago has a collection of 450+ vintage photographs of the CB&Q from the late '40's, including many shop scenes, viewable online.
LINK:http://collections.carli.illinois.edu/cdm4/index_nby_rrlife.php?CISOROOT=/nby_rrlife and click on "Browse this collection", near the top left.

One photo in particular caught my eye: http://collections.carli.illinois.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/nby_rrlife&CISOPTR=367&CISOBOX=1&REC=19
...Is this a 12-201A crankcase?

Sure looks like it; and a 567A case in the background.
