There are photos and diagrams of PRR and Bureau
of Standards scale test cars which look fairly similar to 204739 and 204740 on
pages 424 and 425 (pdf pages 442 and 443) of the 1919 CBC at http://ebook.lib.hku.hk/CADAL/B3139551X/
(plus various other interesting things – see next e-mail)

Duncan,
There are one or two pictures in Mike Spoor's CB&Q Color Guide. The
Bulletin article that John Mitchell referred to also has a large amount of
information and some pictures in color. I have one I have partially started
based on the info in Bulletin 27.
Check Zeller posted this one online:

There was also a discussion on this about year ago on the list. Search for
"CB&Q Scale Test Car 204739".
