I've done it for freight cars to represent where new numbers and reporting
marks were stenciled on. I printed the lettering on thin paper then applied it
with future, a thin coat of future under the paper then apply and blot the
excess out then add a thin coat over the paper. Try printing a numberboard and
see if your printer can print fine enough. The cars I've done it on were O
scale so I'm not sure if my printer could print S scale lettering and numbers
fine enough.
As for the font you'd probably have to look for photos of the loco you want to
model and see what looks the closest....DaveBranum
