1055 restore | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I am restoring a 1055 Texas Special and have come on a roadblock.
I am in need of the decals in this type of font.

Texas Special — The needed Font

Does anyone know where to get some.
Web searches provide very little info and the Texspec font that is available is very different.

Thanks
Steve

You could get them custom printed. I think there are still a company or three that does custom printed decals.

I am not aware of anyone making decals or dry transfers for the 1055 Texas Special. I don't think the demand is there. Not many people restore them.

If you find someone let me know I have a couple of alco shells that need a new shell and need to find decals for them.
