I wrote an article, "Fabricating an American Bridge Co. Turntable",  
that was published in the March/April 2008 edition of "Live Steam and  
Outdoor Railroading" magazine.
In doing my research, I visited a number of libraries, including the  
NMRA. What I found out was that most RRT's were commercially made by  
either American Bridge Co. or Bethlehem Steel Co.
I then found a site run by Russel Crump on the internet.  For $43,  
Russell, sent me 19 36"x24" drawings of a 100 ft A.B.C. turntable, I  
was then able to fabricate two turntable that are each 14 feet long,  
a little big for HO.  See if he has any drawing you can use.
