Does anyone out there have an employee timetable (and could scan them for this board) that shows the tonnage ratings of locomotives on Dixon Hill prior to the line re location during late WWII?

Here are the tonnage ratings from ETT25C, August 13, 1933 for the Rolla Sub, The Lebanon Sub, Salem Br and theChadwick Br. The spot class 2-10-2's had a tonnage class of 82. The 1500's were 54.

I've gone up both Rolla and Dixon Hills with the 1522 at or near tonnage limits, and once up Rolla Hill with over the limit and it got very very noisy.
