Do you have any pics of the Saratoga & North Creek BL2s?  52 was BAR apparently.

Both SNC 52 and 56 are ex BAR. And so is the one in Honesdale, PA on Stourbridge Line

Here are the 52 and 56 in SNC colors at North Creek, NY. 

It wasn't until I reread David Bain's Empire Express recently that I remembered that Thomas Durant was involved in building the Adirondack Railroad (the original name of the SNC route) after his adventures with the UP. Hence the name on 52.

Railpicture.net is usually a good source for reference. A search for "BAR" and "BL2" yeilds quite a few photos - "BL2" may yield even more.

Didn't see too many images of the top though there were several with tarps over the top - that could significantly simplify your work lol.

RR pictures archives would be another source of images.
