You should put this question in the Model Railroad discussion.
 

Or on the Nostalgia & History board.  All you're really looking for is a photo showing the rear of the tender on a Z-8 or similar engine, and that has noting to do with modeling, per se.  Most roads put the engine number someplace on the rear of the tender, but type style, size and location varied, and sometimes other data also (capacity, class, etc.) also appeared in smaller print.  The NP Railway Historical Association (http://www.nprha.org/) would be an even more likely place to find photos and info about this.
