Western Railroad Discussion > SP 252 R & D car

Looking for photos and or drawings of the equipment under the car as well as the interior layout.  Found several pictures of the car on different internet searches and have looked over the HO Coach Yard car for my build in 1:29 G scale as well. G being 3 times HO one can add all sorts of details using resin 3d printing which I intent to do.

Is the car still in Saugus, CA as it was for sale several years ago through Ozark.

Thanks,
Tehachapi Dave

While passing through Salinas, CA in January of 2019 I photographed the car along with private cars Virginia City and Plaza Santa Fe. Sorry no other photos.

Take Care,

Didn't do a ton of looking but found this fairly quick.... https://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r112/SZuiderveen/SP252floorplan.jpg 
There is a post here http://www.rypn.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=24705&p=110243 that gives a little info about the car. 

Hope this helps

It had an SP-style rectangular name sign in the middle of the side and the red stripe above the windows.
Believe it was an ex-CZ car...
