Guide to North American Steam Locomotives

NortonOGR Forum Member

I was wondering is anyone has a copy of a Guide to North American Steam Locomotives by George Drury. I plan to reletter a USRA 0-6-0 for New York Central and apparently these only existed on the subsidiary Chicago Junction RR.
If anyone has the book could they check page 276? I'd like to know if there are pictures of the Chicago Junction or just a description. If the former I will purchase the book. Any other publications about Chicago Junction would also be appreciated. TIA

Thanks Wyhog. I think the USRA'a are NYC B-62s. I am using Wikipedia as my reference right now. I picked up some Champ "New York Central System" decals from Champ just before they folded. I also found this pic while searching for Chicago Junction.

Listed as a B-61 (not USRA):

This is probably the same picture you have of the USRA engine before the NYC acquired them:
