Unfortunately there aren't many (if any) off the shelf decal solutions available in large scales.

The good news is that there are at least two really good 'custom' lettering suppliers that can make nearly anything you need, including prototypical lettering sets. Both Stan Cedarleaf (Cedarleaf Custom Decals) and Del Tapparo (G-Scale Graphics) are long time large scale model railroaders, and are great suppliers. Stan provides water slide decals and Del makes a wide variety of vinyl lettering.

Cedarleaf's Custom Decals homepage is:

G-Scale Graphics' home page is:

Hope this helps.

Happy RRing,
