The Missouri Pacific Historical Society has been helping many of the model railroad manufacturers with prototype information to help bring out the most accurate models possible. This assistance is beneficial to both the manufacturer and the consumer. Knowing that the MPHS has had input in the production of an item builds confidence in the integrity of the models details. The MPHS has a large collection of painting diagrams, paint chips, blue prints, slides and photographs which can be made available to manufacturers.
Our assistance is not limited to models. If you have a project that involves anything Missouri Pacific or subsidiary lines, feel free to contact us.
There are no research fees other than the cost of reproduction and mailing. This research is done by volunteers who are 'subject matter experts' on the MoPac prototype.
Here are some past projects that we have helped with:
Mask Island Decals
Athearn
Genesis GP15-1
Genesis T&P F7
Genesis GP18
Genesis GP38-2
