    Does anyone know where I can find a picture of GEVOS showing the warning decal placement on top of the long hood unit. Specifally placing the Dynamic Brake warnings and the radiator warnings on top of the roof.

    Or can someone post a picture of the top of their FVM Gevos? Thanks.

    ram53 has posted some nice roof shots of his wonderfully detailed Kato GEVO in this thread.

    If you have patience, you could also sift through reams of proto-photos on LocoPhotos. You can select by a number of criteria, and you can usually manage to find a few useful roof shots.

    Does Microscale make a decal set with the GE warning labels?

    Micorscale Decals

    They do for EMD and GE units. I have some for sd70m-sd90, no aces, and GE Dash 8-9,ac44, but I have no gevos. I can post their product numbers if you like.

    Microscale Decal set

    Here is the list:

    60-523 UP High Tech Locos- Ge Dash 840c and SD 60m. This is the original set Ive been using since the release of the original bachman dash 8's back in the day. I tend to renumber all my UP purchases and use this set for renumbering for consitancy. The original release of UP dash 9's lacked the black outline around the numbers and words "Union Pacific". If you cut Union Pacific in half it will easily line up over Katos inacurate Union Pacific wording.

    60-925 Data Ge Dash 9 and AC4400 loco data. Very usefull for repainted or undec ac44's

    60-527 GE and EMD Late 80's loco data and builders plates.

    60-4161 EMD 70 Series Locomotive data, 1990+. Also good for sd80 and 90.
