Re: [CBQ] Lettering for 250 Ton Steam Cranes

Excellent idea for a BRHS project.  I have to think that a number of us would be interested in decals for this and perhaps other CB&Q cranes.

It would still be worth it to reach out to him. You could get probably 8-10 sets on one sheet and then sell the rest. I know I would buy one. 

Alternatively, perhaps this could be a decal project for the BRHS. I think there would have to be something else in the set to make it a little more worthwhile, but if the Society is interested in going that route, I could offer my assistance on the project once again.

I checked out their website, and it is a minimum of $88 for one sheet of custom made decals. Given that the list price for the upcoming Athearn crane and boom car is $95, the custom decals do not appear to be a cost effective solution.

I still am left wondering how others that have modeled this crane (with several models pictured on-line or in the Zephyr) have lettered their models.

Reach out to Circus City Decals in Baraboo, WI.  I'm sure he could produce what you are looking for, and then make them available for others to purchase.
