John and all,
 I am interested in the section house, the house that was supplied to the 
section foreman.  Are there references to the plans?

On the Q, the buildings where the section gangs kept
their tools and motor cars were known as tool houses
or more commomonly as "car hoses". A "section house"
was the company house, supplied to the section foreman
or in some cases, to section laborers. Do you mean a
car house or a section house? But the answer is yes,
there are standard plans for car/tool houses and there
are several standard plans and several "non-standard"
plans for section houses.
