There has been some discussion lately regarding decals. I'm looking for grain hoppers in road names that I've not seen offered by PRS, SHS, or AM, therefore I've been checking for appropriate (or "close enough'') decals. Along with this I'm checking for prototype photos and correct number series. Perhaps this information might interest others. Perhaps this type of information would help our S manufacturers sell their grain hopper overstocks (I'm told it is not terribly difficult to remove the factory lettering and save the paint). I posted the data that I've collected thus far as LOdecals.xls at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/S-Scale/files/mhrreast/ Let me know if you have data to add. I hope that I have the cu. ft. capacity correct for these three S-scale cars. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Quite some time back there was discussion regarding switch ties, how they are not spaced uniformly, I said that I would look for the article that I'd seen on that topic. I finally found my source for this information; Mainline Modeler, Oct. 1994. This article has templates for #'s 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 16, and 20, a good reference for our S scale switch manufacturers. -- Ted Larson http://www.aroundcinci.com/icams/museum/ Yahoo!
