We're looking for copies of the SP/Lima drawings of the original, as delivered style, front train indicator boxes, aka "number boards". Of course, these are for the 4449. Can any one out there help?

Thanks!

This may not be news, but California State Railroad Museum has Lima Locomotive drawings in their library collection.

Wish you well,

Ray, Thanks for the info. I don't think any of us were aware of this!

Let us know how you made out with your drawing search and procurmnet. It could be helpful to others who may be curious on getting copies of drawings of Lima locos as well as other items from their collection for doing research. Maybe it could be in the form of a "Brief"???

Ray,

I'll try to keep a log on the info, and putting together a "brief" sounds like it would be kinda fun.

Thanks,

I checked the catolog list from CRM of their Lima Drawings and I dont see what you are looking for on the list. FWRHS has ordered copies of drawings for 765 before. You can contact CRM Directly and order a catolog of what they have the reproduction costs are fairly high and are for research only. All blueprints are copywrited for CRM and are subject to their approval for reprint.

If CSRM doesn"t have what you need, try the Allen County Historical Society. They have a lot of Lima Drawings that Sacramento doesn't.
