Despatch Shops 70-ton Covered Hopper

Hello Group

I am building a West Shore Line resin model of a 1946 NYC Despatch
Shops built Class LO 70-ton covered hopper. My question is if anyone
has any roof detail shots that show the roof hatches, and related
hardware.

Thank you in advance for any information
Frank

There's a semi roof shot with hatches open in the 49 Car Cyc

Not a whole lot of luck online - I found three photos on Terry Link's
website, but none are good overhead shots. Still, they might help in
revealing some of the picture:
