This is one you are going to have to make yourself of pay somebody to do it for you. It hasn't been produced by any manufacture that I know of. I have seen some nice renditions of the train though that people have done.

From another forum in 2010.
QuoteFYI--Kelley ***** of *****, Colorado is now offering N scale decals for the Frisco/M-K-T Texas Special streamline train. The decal sheet has enough for ALL the LW streamline cars (Not heavyweight cars) and engines (You will have to use the Microscale set #60-455 for the RR company engine heralds). The decals are $44 ($40 + $4 for the shipping envelope).
PM me for more info

I know this isn't N scale, but just received the Email edition of Lionel New catalog last night. Looks as if they're making the MKT "Texas Special" in S gauge as part of the American Flyer Line. Beautiful.

I would like to see this train in N scale too.
