Atlas LIRR C420's

I model in Nscale, and have several Atlas N C420's in LIRR paint. N scale version don't come with the smoke lifters.
 Could someone take some close-up photos of these details on their HO versions? Maybe some dimensions, too?
 Thanks,
 Joe D

Only an Alco diesel would need smoke lifters.

Is is the diagonal plate on the side midsection?  Here are a couple of photos from the interweb.

Thanks so far. I did see all these pics before. Looking for a straight on side shot of HO model, to see how they did them. Might just use some Z channel. But I've got at least 6
 N C420's in various LIRR paint. Would like to see if someone could print them for me.
 Have a great weekend.

Here's a photo with ruler of HO version. Would anyone be able to print these for N scale?
 Don't want the pins. I would buy 24 of each version.
 Thanks,

That’s a great paint scheme.
