Rio Grande Narrow Gauge psgr coaches

[ricky56]

I'm modelling a HOn30 layout and need to build passenger coaches. I'd like to base them on the Rio Grande Coaches that can be seen in Chama, for example (the yellow ones). But I need scale drawings and/or details pics of the underside and roof of those cars. Could anybody tell me where to find such docs ?
Thanks in advance

Ricky,
First, I think that the C&TS cars are all painted green. I may be wrong. There might be a yellow one here or there. The D&S uses the Grande Gold cars.

There are a couple here, but most of them are RGS. I know there is a DRGW site, but can't find it at the moment.

Narrow Gauge & Short Line Gazette, SEPT/OCT 1988 has some drawings.
