I have been looking (unsuccessfully) for Army Transportation Corps decals to decorate WWII era box cars. This sheet from Microscale would have worked, except it is HO scale.
Is anyone aware of where I can get similar O scale decals? Or, can any offer advice about how to make my own?
thanks

I've enlarged HO decals by scanning them and printing on decal paper at 181% enlargement. However, white decals would be a problem unless yuo have access to an Alps printer.
You could find a custom decal maker and send him the HO set as an example of what you want.

Are you looking for the Army corp emblem? It looks like you could use block lettering decals for the rest.
It's the insigna that presents a problem because it's stenciled white on vehicles.
Well, I have reproduction #41 switcher dry transfers that have the logo, but they are expensive, 25.00 a set. Probably not the route you want to go.
I was hoping to find the insignia.
I have this lionel box car, and I really like the looks of the insignia on it.
While this doesn't help with trying to get a white insignia...
You can purchase the US Army Transportation Corps (ca. 1946) font from RailFonts.com.

I bought this font set a couple of years ago to make my own decals. The font set does include (3) variations of the insignia.
