I won the bid on the plans for DAR comboose #91. The auction mentioned the drawing was by J.L. O'Donnell. Is there any historic significance to this name?

Jim O'Donnell is a regular here at the DAR DPI and has supplied a locomotive roster, passenger roster and many unique photos over the years. He's a great guy and I just talked to him recently on the phone.

He has uploaded the same plans you saw on eBay to the wiki some time ago:

Jim's profile is here:

Glad you won the bid. The drawing appears slightly different that the one Jim uploaded. Any plans to scan and share?

I tried to upload the plans but the server kept rejecting it.

Were you trying to upload it to the forum or the wiki?

I assumed your permissions on this forum site and was able to upload. Not knowing your password, I couldn't test the wiki but you do have permission to edit the wiki.

What browser and version are you using?

Can you try again?
