Decals you say...?



Working on the second and third sets of decals right now, -second being C&O Passenger Cars (generic). About the only thing left for the B&O RDC decals is maybe a darker brass color for the heralds, and white numberboard numbers.

Tim,

The C&O RDCs used a different font and had stripes on the ends, but the bigger problem is that you spelled Chesapeake wrong!  :o  Those are some nice looking B&O heralds, though!

That's alright, they are just lettering samples since 4.5 B&O Pass Font is different height than 4.5 Chesapeake Font. An ALPS printer has a much better DPI than a standard inkjet so I had Helviticarr print them out for me in the herald size testing (which is now on the third and final revision to the B&O RDC decals). And yeah I know the nose stripes are needed just haven't gotten around to them yet...ya know I have Ops Sessions to goto  ;)  Probably wont have the C&O Decals ready for a month at least. Then reenacting season starts up again....
