Share Your Manual/Diagrams/Drawings/Etc.

I'm reposting this from my latest entry to the "Frequently Asked Questions" thread:

The following has been added to the "Databases" entry on the first page:

Quote:

http://www.rpca.com/webpages/resourcelibrary.htm RPCA Resource Library The Railroad Passenger Car Alliance (not to be confused with the AAPRRCO) has posted an online resource library with downloadable PDF files relating to passenger car and locomotive operation and maintenance old and current, from old steam heating and air brake manuals to current Amtrak regulations and standards, parts catalogues, wiring diagrams, locomotive operating manuals, complete CFR data, AAR and railroad specification standards, Pullman manuals, car diagrams, and more. They offer to host contributions of others as well.

I want to emphasize the last part especially.

If you have already scanned your copy of that elusive Westinghouse or Alco or Timken or PRR manual, or that operator's manual for that Vapor steam generator, or have already created a handy "how-to guide" for how to substitute one available part/engine/etc. for one no longer available, here's a good place to submit it if you wish to share it with others in the field. Further, if you just stumbled upon something like a Vapor Car Heating Co. Steamheat Instruction Book (as I just did) and think others may be interested, here's an opportunity to share it.
