M&StL Engineering Drawings

RR X-ing

blueprint B-4974-A
I recently found 26 original M&StL engineering drawings at a small antique store. Most are for the GE gas-electric cars from the 20's - 50's. There are also some caboose, freight car, passenger and M.O.W. items. I'll be putting up a list on this page later. Check back soon. Sizes range from 10"x15" to 22"x33.5". I'll make color laser copies for interested parties.

NOTE: I just aquired 8 more drawings. They are highlighted in red. 7/5/2000

I've added links so you can see a few examples. Just click on the drawing number.
