Here is my third addition to the Union Pacific Heritage Series: The KATY.
MKT was the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Train Line, before it merged into Union
Pacific.
I’m not very please with the stickers. I had to use a thicker paper that had
more gloss in order to match the Dark Red.
At least it adds more color to the first two in the series. Three down, and
three more to go. I’m looking forward to showing all six (and maybe a 7th in
modern UP colors) at BrickWorld this June.

Let me know what you think of it.
Thanks,
Scott

Awesome work as usual Scott. For getting more gloss from decals I’ve found that
a few coats of Crystal Clear
Acrylic Spray works well. It remains flexible after drying and gives the decal
a nice LEGO like shine. Once they’re cut out I take a colored marker and touch
up the white edges which also helps them blend in better with the surrounding
brick.
Keep them coming.
