This is floating around in a few places, but is too small in this resolution to be of much use.

There are a few decent drawings of S70's from other systems, but, the cabs are different - not sure about the windows/doors.
I would love if you could send me those PDF's! nick at ottergoose.com is my email address, thanks!I have a few .pdfs saved showing revised livery designs that are vector based, so they are pretty detailed. They don't have dimensions, but it should be able to calculate if you know the length. The one I have for the Siemens LRVs is higher quality and has a front view. I also have a slightly higher quality version of the Bombardier schematic you posted. Let me know if you want me to send them to you.
My father is huge into it, especially mid-century CB&Q. He's all N scale. I was pretty big into it as well (all my rolling stock is late 90s BNSFish), up until I graduated HS and went off to college and found myself 450 miles from his basement. As luck would have it, my folks moved to S MPLS this summer after retirement and one stipulation of their new house was a layout-ready basement. He's very excited to be starting from scratch—and I'd love to help. And now that I've got a son of my own, it'll be a real joy to teach him all about trains at Grandpa's house.Anyone else here into model railroading, transit or otherwise?
If trains aren't your thing, they've got buses too...Ah make it stop, I've got enough expensive hobbies already!

The space savings are pretty amazing; N scale takes up roughly 1/4 the area as HO does. If you get into doing lots of scenery and so on, you can make landscapes that dwarf the trains more easily, and, it's also easier to run longer freight trains that look "real." A 40 car train in N scale is the same length as a 22 car train in HO.I have a bunch of HO-scale stuff from when I was a young pup so obviously that's a place to start but what are the advantages of N-scale or HO-scale, beyond the obvious space savings?
