I need a copy of the blueprint to the old pre- 1962 FP5 air brake glad hand.

Its the one with the over rotation steel pin pressed into it. After 1962 there is no over rotation pin.

I've got some drawings from some AAR manuals, but its obviously missing some dimensions, and possibly some views, etc.. It looks too simple.

I might be able to use a newer or older glad hand blueprint for the basic dimensions (maybe they haven't changed much) so if you've got the earlier or later version I'll sure try to work with it.

A scan will work just fine. No need for paper, unless that's easier.

Let me know if you are also searching for something (blueprint) maybe I have it or know where to help you find it.

Thanks !
