"In particular I am interested in detail/modelling information or photos of UP 40' DD steel ACR boxcar series #9100-9229 and Rock Island 40' SD steel boxcar series #20000-20050, 20060-84." An HO scale kitbashing article for the UP cars by Gary Binder and Steve Orth appeared in Vol 15 No 3 (Summer 2001) issue of the UPHS Streamliner, including an equipment diagram and prototype photos. The base kit used was the Intermountain R-40-10 with underframe modifications, Tichy Youngstown doors, Red Caboose rectangular panel roof, and ASF Ride Control, Symington, or Allied Full Cushion trucks. This issue of The Streamliner is still available from the UPHS: http://www.uphs.org/strmavail.htm Ben Hom
