Re: [CBQ] 3 Pixel to The Foot GIFs

If you know the lengths why can't you create a scale that would allow you to 
fix height and width?

  Subject: [CBQ] 3 Pixel to The Foot GIFs


    
  Hello Everyone

  I draw train GIFs at a scale of 3 pixels to the foot and am currently 
preparing a series of representations of Burlington streamliners. 

  At present I'm working on The California Zephyr (with locomotives in all 
liveries), the 1947 Twin Cities Zephyr and The General Pershing Zephyr but I 
intend to produce depictions of all of the Zephyrs in every 'official' 
variation, from 1934 to 1970, as well as those streamlined trains that were 
worked over Burlington Routes for other companies. There are numerous good 
photographs available on the web but I'm hampered by the difficulties involved 
in finding good general arrangement drawings with dimensions, including heights 
and widths (for some reason lengths are often given without the relevant 
heights and widths). Can anyone direct me to a source of useful GA drawings for 
coaches and power cars?

  I'd also be interested in chatting to anyone else working in 3 pixels or 
above.
