Hi All, This is the first chance I had to get onto this news group. My company has firewalls and really doesn't like too much personal use on the web... Anyway, I used the wet version of the train decals. I like the way you can slide them around (...) (26 years ago, 8-Oct-98, to lugnet.trains)

Michael, I used dry transfer decals for my steam engine ((URL) You can find these at most train hobby stores. A word of caution though, they are not easy to put on. And, it's going to put a foreign substance on your LEGO bricks. I'm not sure what (...) (26 years ago, 7-Oct-98, to lugnet.trains)

I've done some experimenting with model train decals. You can buy dry decals and they apply quite easily and nicely onto LEGO bricks. O-scale prints match the LEGO train scale altough they might be a bit too big depending on your preference. As for (...) (26 years ago, 6-Oct-98, to lugnet.trains)

I guess I should post this to RTL first, but I thought I'd try it hear... On PNLTC, there's a Chessie Caboose. I'm guessing that stickers were used on the caboose... Now, I've just recently gotten into trains (so I know very little and next to (...) (26 years ago, 6-Oct-98, to lugnet.trains)

(...) There are two cabooses done by Steve Barile on the PNLTC pages. They, and the "caboose" in the new TLG set are 2 axle. This is pretty rare for american prototype practice, most are 4 axle. I think mine captures the US prototype look fairly (...) (26 years ago, 5-Oct-98, to lugnet.loc.us.wa.sea, lugnet.trains)
