GRAMPS Tankcar Data

Greetings!
Currently I am drawing a picture of a GRAMPS tank car for illustration purposes, and was wondering what specific data is (was) on the Frameless tank cars.
The data I'm keenly interested is located on the far right side (After the S ) and on the ends of the car. The information mentions something about heater type, inspections by the D&RGWRR in Alamosa, and more.
I tried searching the forum for past discussions, and besides learning where the name 'Gramps' originated, I failed to find this data.

If I could get this information in a word by word account, I would greatly appreciate it.
