Need picture of railcar wrecked after falling

[rebel]

Just what the title said as I need to add some interest to the bottom of the trestle, a few plants just doesn't cut it. What I want specifically is a car smashed up a bit but not too bad, preferably a stock car. also need a pic of a car bottom without trucks as I want to model it on its side and the trucks usually came off at some point in the crash. Searched the web and nothing yet.

Should have stated that up front, thought the cattle car was enough but I guess I am tied to my own era, I model the late 1930's (although I sneak in anything later that looks the part like war hoppers) but most of my equipment is steel centerbeam or trussrod with 40' being the max for most cars (got some larger flats and an outside braced or two longer and in passenger most of my stuff is Overtons with a few Overlands I just added because the price was so right, they may not stick around though.

Rebel,

There is a Canadian modeler named Doug Hole who modeled a train wreck back in 1997. Do you have access to Mainline modeler January 1997? He is on the cover and several pages in the magazine. If you do not have this issue, send me a PM with your email address and i will scan them for you.

That's the type of picture, only was hoping for earlier rolling stock as I model the 1930's and need to see what realistic damage I can inflict in a fall, this is complicated by the fact I would like to use at least Tichy quality.
