If you plan on building a military layout and want to know the types of buildings used, layout of depots, piers used for inloading ships, I have the blueprints, plans and manuals.

I have acquired the blueprints for buildings the Army designed for "Theater of Operations" construction. This type of construction was used during World War II. All buildings are wood frame construction. These building styles were used in the States as well as Europe.

I have Manuals that deal with depot layout for railroads.

The blueprints are sometimes hard to read because they were copies from the original plans and some dimensions are hard to see.

One thing unique found was how to construct a wooden pier to off load Liberty and Victory Ships full of railcars.

The blueprints are very comprehensive yet easy to read and understand. Presently, I can offer them and other copies in 8 1/2 X 11 size. Blueprint size is $20/page (my cost).

If interested, please email me at: meckanic@basicisp.net
 


For blueprint size, $20 is a very reasonable cost.

For a 24"x36" sheet, $5 is a reasonable cost, if not a common cost for a single page. It's way too much for a letter size sheet, though.
 
Ryan, I guess I didn't get my point across. He's not asking $20 for letter-size paper but for blueprint sheet size. I don't know where you're lucky enough to get a blueprint sized drawing copied for $5 but I can't get that kind of price in my neck of the woods.
