I believe Kevin did all the stickers himself for those.  Beyond that, I have
no idea.


For my Via engine (which Steve told me did not survive the trip...funny, I
would have figured it more sturdy than the Class 25), I just used the same
yellow tape I had.  As regards where the lines go, it is kind of dictated by
the design...they have to go under the windows, and that means that they go

for use with the green one the same as a double headed Tyne Dock-Consett train,
seeing how I still have most of my Tyne dock hopper cars :)
