Please do!! I saw those and was wondering if it would be worth it or if
they might work with a inkjet printer to get some color of course they
would have to be sprayed with something or the ink would run.

I found at Sam's Club the other day, a Transparancy pack, I haven't
tried it yet, it's made for Inkjet printers. What this is though is
static cling transparencies. Those kind like you have on your windows
around holidays. Only problem I see with these is the fact that you
can't print white, (yet they show something printed with white on the
front of the pack) hence the reason I haven't opened them yet. I know
the static part should work, Cat hair sure sticks to the bricks!
There are 15 sheets in the pack.
If anyone is curious to see if their Sam's as them, the item number is
956712 and they cost 13.62 they are made by Royal Brites there's no addy
on the package anywhere.
Hope this helps a little...

| I guess I would have to agree along the lines of Larry's critique. It is compressed and toylike-- not that there is anything wrong with that (thank you, Jerry S) if that is the look you desire. If, however, you are looking for realism based on a (...) (25 years ago, 29-Apr-99, to lugnet.trains)
