[CBQ] CB&Q and Early BN Air Brake Instructions?

["hk9911" <HKRITS@hotmail.com>]

List,

Does anyone have a copy of the CB&Q's air brake instruction manuals from the 
1950s or early 1960s?

Specifically, I need to get quadrant diagrams and other operational information 
for the D-22 brake schedule as used on the E5s AFTER the electric braking 
control was deactivated.

I also need the same diagrams and info for the PB-68 brake schedule as applied 
to the WSMTD E9Ams when rebuilt by M-K in the early 1970s.

This is for a revised/updated edition of our Air Brake and Train Handling 
(ABTH) Instructions at Illinois Railway Museum. 

To be clear, I'm not looking for maintenance schematics or piping diagrams, 
what I need are the instructions that the railroad provided to the enginemen 
for operation. We do not necessarily need to have the original documents, 
good-quality scans (.jpg for diagrams, .jpg or .pdf for text) would do nicely.

If you can help out, please contact me off-list at hjkrewer@hotmail.com

Many Thanks,

Harold Krewer
Superintendent of Operations
Illinois Railway Museum
