I have been trying to complete a reasonably close model of this derrick for some time, but have been stymied by not being able to read the words under the "DANGER" lettering on the rear and sides of the cab.  Louis' photo is clearer than most I have seen, and I can read some of the lettering.  Can someone with better eyesight than I tell me what the complete wording is?  Also, any suggestions for an HO scale decal set to use for this lettering?  I seem to remember a photo of a derrick model by Rupert Gamlen in "The Zephyr" years ago from the annual meet model contest, so perhaps Rupert is one source that can enlighten me (us).

Thanks in advance,

Scott Myers

Greetings,
I would like to positively identify and then locate a detail drawing 
from a CBC or other reliable source for the car end found in the photo 
below. I believe it is a Murphy 7 panel reverse rib. The rib tops 
appear to be flat and have a more square cross section. The photo is 
somewhat deceptive in representing the actual cross section.

The panel was installed on the boom car that served the CB&Q  Bucyrus 
Erie 250-ton derrick #204376 kept in Galesburg. IL.

Any help would be appreciated including detail photos of #208260. If 
anyone knows of an O scale source for this car end, please let me know 
that, too.

Thank-you.

Regards,

Randy Danniel
