Hi Sean, Did CN use standardized font sizes (same font sizes on different locomotive models, more precisely from GR-9s to EF644s).
Happy New Year from Germany Michael

Hi Michael
All cab numbers on hood units were standard 15" until the CN North America map scheme came along. Cab units had smaller numbers to fit between the stripes.
CN started to deviate from standardization around the time the SD60/Dash8s were delivered.
This set has only the 15" side numerals in a "CN only" font style which is somewhere between Helvetica and Univers.
Happy New Years to everyone on the DD!

Ok Gents, here we go....100 sets in my hands! First here is the colour comparison, Accucals on the left, Mine in the centre, and old MS run on the right (this colour NLA) Very close to the Accucal, MS a bit dark. (both my Accucals and MS sets are old and have yellowed slightly) Here's 3019 completely dried, masking is near invisible. Here's 1265, settling nicely over the louvers...on MM Flat black! Here's 4111...nice to FINALLY have speed gearing decals!!! ya hoo!!! Still have to work out shipping costs, but they will be up for sale on Monday. You will be very pleased with these decals!

Possibly, I'll have to talk it over with my printer. He's used to converting 1/72 to 1/144 so it shouldn't be an issue, but I'll have to redraw some of the smaller artwork, and be more selective with the class numbers.
BTW, only 25 sets left! wow, they're going fast!

Thanks to all who ordered, and I am now SOLD OUT! (in a whopping 3 days I might add!)
Don't worry, I've placed an order for more and should have them March 1st.
Thanks for your help to make this a reality!
