I have had nothing but trouble decalling my Pacific Electric SW1 into Tiger Stripes. The letters and numbers, no issues, though the stripes, well, it must have been old decals. They tore and folded over onto themselves. As for the loco, I named her Tigger, since there was only one SW1 lettered for the Pacific Electric and I am sure that this is the only one in N Scale.
had to go back to 1953 when kodachrome was expensive that caboose got out of the paint shop a little bit too soon.
LOL But the Kodachrome wasn't really the expensive part. It was the slide projector and those two hour lifespan bulbs!
