Re: End Door Boxcar & Fire Engine
I disagree, I think that is being unloaded at it's destination. I feel there are to many watching for it being loaded, If they we loading it I'm sure there would be just enough people to get the job

Re: Custom Yellow Decal?
A friend of mine used to do that for trust stencils. Unless you carry a loupe for reading the tiny
letters, you'd never notice it ! :-D

Re: Custom Yellow Decal?
Because it still might not be opaque enough.
I used the word "might" because I don't know.
A very interesting proposal, though.
That said, I like my idea better. Only one layer of one color. No

Re: Custom Yellow Decal?
If it's hard to print yellow over white in perfect register why not print yellow over yellow?
For small lettering that may not be legible in HO anyway I use N scale dimension data applied upside down

Re: Custom Yellow Decal?
Dave,
I did preface my statement with "From what I've seen,...". I am not intimately acquainted with the decal production business.
I've seen the problem of yellow-over-white I describe in Microscale

Re: End Door Boxcar & Fire Engine
The location of this photo is very likely Elmira, NY, which was home to both American LaFrance and Ward LaFrance, both makers of fire trucks. The American LaFrance plant was large and sat opposite

Dang. I think you’re correct. I was basing it on the first truck. Looked longer than 50’.

Re: End Door Boxcar & Fire Engine
Actually, I think that it is too short and the roof is wrong for the X30. Rather, this appears to be an X33A.
