I've only scratched the surface myself as far as these Reference Sheets go but considering the amount of info that they provide I believe I will be looking more closely at these references because of the amount of information that they provide.  I am always looking for a way of increasing the resources I have and to gain info on the GN it would be well worth the effort.

Very interesting, thanks for sharing that. I like to see some more images of some of those. Will have to do some more research.

I wish you luck... I have searched high and low all over the internet for such shots and all I have found was the one shot of the car mentioned above after it were placed into MofW service... really wish more of these beauties could be found!!!
