Nelson and All-
I have previously posted inquiries for CB&Q stencil drawings for alpha and numeric characters.
There are Burlington drawings covering the Zephyr style lettering which used to create art that has been used for decals and electronic fonts.   I have never seen any railroad drawings for passenger car lettering, either regular or extended ‘Railroad Roman” or Ribbon Style, nor steam locomotive stencil lettering either.
I did find a set of “ARA Standard Lettering” which I paid to have copies made and have art for which is a start for freight and MOW lettering which I can help for decal projects.

I have been in communication with a decal printer about producing a passenger car decal sheet in Railroad Roman (or the CB&Q version if the fonts exist) as a compliment to the Micro Scale CB&Q ribbon font decal sheet. I found lettering diagram sheets in BB#4 for coaches and BB#8 for combines, baggage, and mail cars. I have not found lettering dimensions for named passenger cars or the BURLINGTON (standard and extended) for letterboards. I would appreciate it if anyone with lettering information including the Q serif font and ampersand styles would contact me off group. The decal printer is also interested in including a list of named car decals. I sent nine candidates representing various car classes, but we’re open to adding more, based upon input from this group.
