I was wondering. Is there anywhere I can get transfers that can be made to say my railway name? None of my locos have road names so I thought it would be a nice addition. Can't find anywhere though.
Cheers.

For building signs, posters etc, I use various coloured backgrounds 0 and sometimes the lettering so it is non white too, then print and use decal paper. I've found that cheap ladies hairspray works as well as any more expensive fixative. And, of course, fill up the decal sheet so as too not waste that costly paper!
Duncan -you need a cheapy printer - HP 3-in-one (ie also a copier and scanner) go for about $40 in Australia! (@£20) complete with a first set of inks
(Irony: when my inks run out, at $50 a pop, I buy a new printer..not environmentally friendly, but economic)
Question for Beavercreek: Sir, where can one acquire that lovely hand crane on the platform? I've seen these in pics on here before, but never found the source.

Not much gets thrown out at my place just ask the missus
