Does anyone know where to look for or have access to photos of railroad maintenance vehicles (pick-up trucks, etc.) for the Southern Pacific and/or Union Pacific during the 1950s, 60s, or 70s? I would like to paint some vehicles but have found very little information out there.
I would even be happy with photos of vehicles for other roads as well.

Thanks
