Hello,
I was wondering if anybody had any spare printed numberboards for Kato DRGW F3's #5541 and #5544?
When I unpacked my Zephyr set the other day, I noticed that three of the four numberboards on the two locos
were missing. They must have been sucked off when I vacuumed the cars and locos before putting them in
storage a while back. Is this something that Kato might still have in stock? I only see undecorated numberboards
on their parts site. I have not contacted Kato yet, but may next week if necessary.
Thanks,
William

I don't think they sell specific numbered boards as spare parts. If you have access to a laser printer, you can make your own pretty easily using laser decal paper.

In researching this question I came across an interesting website which shows multiple options for printing/applying numberboards:

Now I just need to see if anybody has any spare undecorated F3 numberboards to work with.
They are available from Kato, but $7.00 shipping for a $2.00 item is not very economical.
