Miniature S&G environmental padlocks. Help needed

Hello all, I recently acquired 2 of these ex MKT railroad locks. I was hoping to obtain a key, or make a key for these. They are the miniature S&G environmental padlocks. Used on RR signals and such. Any help with obtaining a key or getting a pic of the bitting would be greatly appreciated.

Your lock may have 3 to 5 discs in it as opposed to the bigger padlock that only has 3.

This videos should help:



If you prefer to read a nice how to document, here is one:
