Fantastic !!!

Did you apply new decals to K-Line’s existing letter boards & car name plaques ?

Please share your process

Thanks in advance !!!

I only had to remove the California Zephyr lettering and the car name.  The letter boards were of sufficient length for the new decals.  To make these cars look almost real, I weather them slightly with black chalks and apply several coats of dullcoat finish.  I also removed the power pickup rollers and lighting because I do not light my head end cars.  This was a quick and easy project.  This car should have been named Silver Light but K4 did not include this name in their decal set...presently, they only have names for the Texas Zephyr cars.
