Just checked _www.alphabetroute.com_ (http://www.alphabetroute.com) and there is no answer under the P&WV section. Chuck Hladik In a message dated 11/28/2009 4:16:17 P.M. Eastern Standard Time,

I have Champ HN-81. It includes the road name, various size reporting marks and end reporting marks, numbers for sides and ends. It does contain the round herald, whicm mesures out to 30 scale inches. It also contains the "symbol of Service" slogan, but it is "stacked" symbol of over Service, rather than angles as on Ted's set. The size of the slogan is larger than on Ted's set as well. The set contains enough to letter two cars. Hope this helps. Jim Brewer Glenwood MD ----- Original Message -----

List,
Jim is correct in regard to Champ set HN81 Pittsburgh & West Virgina. When the Champ "Final End of An Era" catalog was issued several years ago, this set was in the process of being revised. When I reordered decals last Spring, the revised sets were what arrived in the order. Regards, Tom Olsen 7 Boundary Road, West Branch Newark, Delaware, 19711-7479 (302) 738-4292 tmolsen@... |

Having done cars with Champ, Walthers, and Jack Consoli's decals, I heartily recommend the latter. I am finishing up a PS-1 using Jack's decals, and they are really sharp and accurate. BTW, if you are considering doing the 1500 series boxes, recommend you get the Mainline Modeler issue that has Bob Hundman's article on these ex-NKP cars, the Paul Dunn photo of that car, plus a good Viking roof. I look forward to seeing your model! Elden Gatwood -----Original Message-----
