Troop Sleepers

Hi All,
I was wondering if any of you might have information regarding WWII era Troop Sleepers and Kitchen cars manufactured by Pullman and ACF respectively. I have seen the available info at the Cannonball site (selling HO kits) and the NEB&W site. I am particularly looking for diagrams of the underside of the car to locate steam and brake lines. I am told a troop sleeper resides at the B&O musuem in Baltimore (Their web site is next to useless) - anyone have photographs? I know that the Southeastern R museum in Duluth Ga (atlanta) has a Kitchen car - I have photos and will be back there soon to craawl all over that sucker! Any other information that you think might be helpful would be most welcome - I'm building up a train of the Cannonball cars and am at the detailing stage Happy Rails Bruce Bruce F.
