    I wasn't sure where to post this but this seems like a crafty thread where it might be relevant.

    I have an N-scale SW7-style switcher that has no road number on it. Does anyone have recommendations for e.g. N-scale decals and where to get them that would be appropriate to use in this case?

    Thanks.

    What railroad is it ? The appropriate decal set may already exist from Microscale.

    Is it painted in any particular railroad's colors? Perhaps you could post a photo? Do you have the box in which it came, which might show a brand and catalog number?

    Does your locomotive look like these Mark? I shot these two 08/1980 at Bethlehem Steel in Bethlehem, PA. Bethlehem's mills were served by railroads owned by Bethehem Steel, at this location, the Philadelphia, Bethlehem & New England.

    Bethlehem Steel owned these railroads:

    Cambria & Indiana
    Conemaugh & Black Lick
    Patapsco & Back Rivers
    Philadelphia, Bethlehem and New England Railroad
    South Buffalo
    Steelton & Highspire
