Here is a great source: (URL) finding one that is a direct shot of the real sticker, I then spend a (...) (17 years ago, 22-Aug-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

Honestly, you need to get to (URL) railfonts> and buy the herald fonts Benn has created. They are vector based and are totally awesome! (...) (17 years ago, 8-Sep-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| | | | | | John, thanks for the comments! I have been to railfonts.com and haven't always found what I was looking for. Also, I enjoy doing a lot of this stuff. If he had re-sizeable pictures of video game arcade machines (my most recent project), I would have (...) (17 years ago, 8-Sep-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| | | | | (...) I'll be the first to admit I'm not the biggest fan of diesel MOCs, but that has so many interesting details I really do like it. The bogeys are a neat design, particularly the way the steps are part of the bogey but line up neatly in the (...) (17 years ago, 22-Aug-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| | | | | | (...) Jason, Thanks for the compliments! I'm also happy with the way that the sunken box turned out for the exhaust. I wasn't sure it was going to look good. I really tried to tile, or not show studs on the front, but couldn't find anything else (...) (17 years ago, 22-Aug-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
