[CBQ] correct decals for SW7 and correct fonts for U30B

["imjimiam" <jimih@myway.com>]

I have an HO SW7 loco that I am planning on painting in the blackbird 
CB&Q colors. My modelling period is app. 1972 after the merger took 
place.   Microscale offers the following decals 87-609 & 610 for 1950-
1970 and 87-659 for 1964-70. What would be correct for my era and what 
is the difference between 659 and 609? Are they for different color 
schemes? 

Also,I have seen several pictures of switchers with wagon wheel type 
antennas.  Were these still used in the early 1970s?

I also have a U30B project HO loco.  The number boards of these units 
had black letters on a white background.  What was the correct font 
used for the number board?
