On30 / Re: Decals for the 2-6-0 steam loco

I use Clover House dry transfers. They're nicely done and easy to use on large, flat surfaces, but difficult on small areas like domes.

Kevin-

Saw your post about the cabbage stack over on that 'other" group. It's my hope that the 4-4-0 will come with the stacks and fuel load choices which were included with the 2-8-0. I'm an oil burner, modeling an SP subsidiary based in Northern California.

I'm also inclined to wait until the sound-equipped locos are released. The cost of a sound-ready loco ends up being about the same as doing it yourself, but without having to install the speaker and decoder. I've ended up selling off my non-sound Bachmann engines and have replaces them all with Soundtraxx models. I hope the sound-equipped 4-4-0's will follow the initial run shortly.

Mr. B-
I'm thrilled with the 4-4-0 (would have preferred a Ten Wheeler), and will definitely buy two of the 1920's versions, but not until the sound-equipped versions come out. That's all I'll buy anymore.

Bach Man-

I'd heard rumors about this kit and have been waiting to see it. I have Mt. Albert's first kit ( a remake of Campbell's Produce Shed) and it's unbelievably well done and well worth the $200 price tag. Includes furniture, lighting, details, precision materials and some of the best drawings and instructions I've ever seen. I don't know what details come with the new one, but I'm sure they're up to Mt. Albert's standards.

Guess I'd better start saving for the Brewery. Nice job matching the signage to the Bachmann reefers. That might keep me from relettering at least one of them!
