could you do them as something other than a JPG?
Too many things going on to bother listing them.

Save as DXF or DWG file extension if your drawing software allows.

Problem I'm finding is that these were already saved as a BMP file so they are pixelated already - so would need to be redrawn in CAD. Grumble!

You don't have to grumble. I am the guilty chap. :D

I have made this design for my 2-4-0 NG locomotives and upload the BMP files on GRABCAD four years ago.

EXCELLENT! I figured whoever published those plans would probably enjoy seeing them again - And I can't help but share them...
