I am looking for drawings of the Blomberg M truck, there used to be some at http://www.southernrailwaymodeling.com/ ... ec1980.pdf but the site seems to be gone.

I tried to pull up an old version of that site on archive.org but unfortunately that's not possible because the site is currently held by a domain squatter who is using a parking service which includes a "robots.txt" file that requests that the site not be archived. Unfortunately archive.org honors that retroactively.

A Bloomberg M power truck like the ones used under the GP-50's & 60's etc...?

I had one once and guy "borrowed" it then never returned it and stole it from me.

I know where to get another copy, Jim Murry in Oklahoma has one, I'll try to find his info.

This one is a real EMD assembly drawing.

Try this link:

Jerry LaBoda agreed to keep Donnie Dixon's original work available online at his new site. Was effective July 26, 2010.

Sorry. Didn't know or say the drawing was definitely there...just that this is the new location of Donnie Dixon's original material. Left the lookin' up to those interested, and if it isn't there, at least you have the website owner to ask about it.
