Good afternoon everyone.
I am now fairly advanced with filling a large sheet with black & white
waterslide transfers and looking for information to allow me to fill the
remainder of the gaps with 00n3 transfers. I would like to get things
wrapped up within the next fortnight or so, if possible. After this the
next few print runs are going to be colours, so anything that misses
this window will need to wait for a while.
I have a few outstanding queries and would appreciate any contributions
towards this:
For a selection of Great Southern initials, are these required in sizes
other than 12" (common) and 16"? Do I also need to include a smaller one
for low sided (1 plank) wagons?
Did the CIE logo come in any sizes other than 6" & 12"?
I am hoping to cover the following railways on this print run: C&L; CDR;
CVR; & Lough Swilly. Could folk suggest any vehicle types they would
like to see covered? I can look at kit manufacter's catalogues, but if
that's not going to tell me what people have taken out of the cupboard
recently & built. As long as it can be printed in black & white, there's
a fair chance it can be included.
To complement the West Clare open wagons sheet, I was pondering doing
one covering a handful of covered vans. Would there be any interest in
this? All I need is a handful of running numbers and photos if there are
special details are required beyond company initials and tare.
Finally for Irish railways, was any 3' coaching stock lettered in white?
I have only seen a modest number of photos and in B&w this doesn't let
on whether the lettering was a cream, yellow or white.
These new sheets are to go alongside: CIE logos; T&D Vans; & WCR open
wagons (already printed) and T&D opens (already expected & mainly drawn
out for printing).
I appreciate the IOM is a bit more mainstream. However, I am still in
need of inspiration. Could you please let me know what is wanted for
freight stock lettering? I would like to print both white with black
shading and plain white lettering. Locomotive & coach transfers will
need to wait as they are in cream or yellow but are on the lists to do
in due course.
Regards, Simon.
