Cool looking trains with historical significance (was Slightly OT:

by Mike <AutoDeleteSpam@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jun 22, 2008 at 10:20 PM

OK.  Phase 2.  I am planning to have a custom set of high-end (clay)
poker chips produced with a different locomotive on each different
chip denomination for use with the 18xx board games.  And I need your
help.  I'd like to ask you to send me drawings (or pictures) of the
locomotives listed below.  Obviously I would ask you to only send
drawings (or pictures) that are public domain or under a Commons
license or for which you personally own the copyright and are willing
to authorize me to use it.
I am most interested in side views of the steam locomotives (rather
than the ubiquitous 3/4 views), but will be grateful for whatever I
get.  The Streamliners and Diesels (and Electrics) probably look
better with 7/8 or 3/4 views.
I am especially interested in drawings (rather than photographs) of
colorful versions of the models listed below (which could include
replica/rebuilds of some of the more historical trains).  If you can
send an .eps (or other vector) file, that would be great.  Otherwise
a .tif would be a second choice.  And a .jpg would be a third choice.
If drawings are not available, photos are also welcomed.
For any picture that you send to me that ends up being used to create
a chip, I will send you a free chip (with that picture) as a token
gesture of thanks.

Please send files to me at LocomotivePictures [(at)] mchsi [(dot)]
com.
And thank you for your help.
