I'm looking for info on the Flexi-vans used by NYC and others back in the early days of intermodal. Walthers makes them in HO, but I'd like to make one in N. I'm looking for pictures or drawings. I'm especially interested in the ones Illinois Central used for mail on the front of some of their passenger trains.

Model Railroader did an article on them in the early '90s with drawings. I believe they also show up in one of the New York Central color guides from Morning Sun.

The issue of MR is Feb 1992.  I found mine in the used magazine rack at the LHS.  Also a couple of sites what might help are:

www.canadasouthern.com/caso/NYC-MODELS-FREIGHT.htm    and www.rr-fallenflags.org/ and look under NYC, there are some photos there...
