 The decal number for HO scale is 87-106 for O scale 48-78. Go to quick links and choose Norfolk and Western to find the decals.

I did not see any N&W steam engine decals on their site (Microscale).  Do you use their diesel decals?

 This is good to know. That product flew under my radar. I (and others) have successfully used Testors GlossKote in essentially the same way to rescue old decals.  
  Thanks,

Re: N&W steam decals: Microscale makes Liquid Decal Film #MI-12.  I use it on every Microscale decal, even new ones because you don't know how long they have been in someone's stock.  It works like this:  Using a fine brush, brush it across only the area you intend to cut out of the sheet. It looks scary at first because you see what looks like a thick blob on the decal.  Pull the brush across the decal one time only. In a minute or two the solvent evaporates and dries completely smooth and flat. I have used it on decals several years old.  Its use is not limited to Microscale decals.  There is a complete explanation on Microscale's website.  Their N&W steam set is in inventory as well.  I don't know of any other manufacturer making N&W steam decals at this time.    --Rick Morrison   ----- Original Message -----

I have a set but they are old and probably will fall apart when they hit water.  I have scanned them and may have to make my own.  I was hoping someone might have done it already and was offering to sell them to our group.  Thank you for the advice.

 Search on ebay for the Microscale set. They show up now and then.

Does anyone know where I can obtain some viable older stock or (hopefully) new inventory N&W steam (1940's and 1950's era) for an 0-8-0 switcher?
