**** Very small image for all that’s shown.

Ehernberger/UP-55 has a diagram floor plan of paycar #026 c. 1885.

Barger/UP-x has a plan and side elevation of C&S business car #911 (old B-2) based on the C&S passenger car diagram ca. 1923.

Ferrell/C&S-210/11 contains an underframe plan and elevations of both sides and both ends of C&S business car #911. This drawing has numerous inaccuracies, among which are windows on one side taller than on the other, siding between the window pairs (should be a single 4" board), and a single icebox door (should be three doors).

Martin/Business has elevation drawings of C&S business car #911.
