Help required to find drawings for "S"-class inside cylinders, motion and crank axle

[Horsetan]

As the title suggests, I'm on the lookout for copies of the engineering drawings which relate to the GNR(I) "S"-class 4-4-0 - particularly anything which relates to the cranks and inside motion between the frames.

 

I've searched on both the NRM and Manchester Museum of Science & Industry catalogues, and nothing comes up.

 

Would the Irish Railway Record Society have anything suitable?

 

Thanks in anticipation

The IRRS is a good place to start. Also... as the RPSI have an S class of their own, they may have drawings in their possession.

There are 1 or 2 drawings of GNR loco(defo a 4-4-0 but not sure what one) motion in the book 'Locomotives Of The GNRI' by Norman Johnston.

E mail the IRRS and mark it for the attention of the Archivist.

The guy who deal with archives is very helpful and if they have what your after they will help you.

Thanks for all replies so far: looks like IRRS and RPSI are the ways to go.
