There is a guy on Choo-Choo auctions that sells decals for most locos, but I was not happy with the appearance of decals where a loco was previously rubber stamped. Olsens sells some rubber stamps. I now create a Word document before the paint is stripped duplicating the size, font and spacing, then send it to a local rubber stamp company. They scan the doc and create a rubber stamp from that image. The results are very good.

I have friends who had good results having them made. Inexpensive too.

You can probably get your money back by selling them when you are finished!
