American Flyer Factory Blue Prints

 I posted this the other day in the O Gauge section of the forum and someone recommended I post it in S Scale Trains. I was not aware the forum had a S Gauge section...So happy to see it...... I recently purchased a large American Flyer and Lionel paper collection. When going through everything included with sale I came across American Flyer factory blue prints for two diesel engines. The 1st one being a F3 or Alco dated 6-24-1950 with the number being XA-11378 and approved by initials W.R.H. The 2nd one being a #230 Diesel Switcher dated 7-18-1950 and drawn by R.E.D. Jr. I also have a factory blue print for a IMP engine. The drawing says it's O gauge 17/64 scale. Its a class "ED16" 1BB1 Electric Loco No.5925. Does anyone know if these drawings are rare or are they fairly common? Someone said these were made available to service stations to help them service the engines then someone else said this was not the case. Both blue prints have several initials and different dates from 1950 when workers signed off on them. Thanks for any help.
