B&M Decals???

[Hytec]

Anybody know where I can find pre-McGinnis, i.e. Minute Man, freight car decals in N-Scale?

MicroScale only has passenger, diesels, and a boxcar set that is early post McGinnis.

Highball Graphics, who advertises "all New England Rails", only has steam, milk cars, and one or two post-McGinnis freight cars.

Haven't found any others .... graemlins/headscratch.gif

At first, I thought I could help by looking through one of my wholesale catalogs... then I realized that you needed the decals in N scale. There just aren't too many printers of N scale decals, beyond Microscale, and too many of their decals are out of stock. Hmm, maybe that's what I could make.... graemlins/headscratch.gif

Hank,
check out eBay. I think the guy who bought Northeast Decals and moved to Cincinnati is now closing the business down, and listing what he has left in stock at .50 each bought in groups of 10. (a heck of a deal!!!) I don't know what he has, but he specialized in NE railroads, so may have a lot of B&M. You can email him off one of his other listings. His user id is: globodelojo.
I first started using Northeast decals in the 1970s. They are pretty good and have a great shelf life.
Good luck...hope you can get just what you want.

Highball Graphics in Ossipee, NH has offered to make some for me, but I can't justify $40 setup costs, in addition to $7 per sheet ... maybe in a year or so .... graemlins/headscratch.gif
