One trick I had heard and used with older decals is to spray them with glosscote and let them dry completely before cutting them out and using them. That might be a way to salvage something older.

I’ve found that most older decals disintegrate after a few years.  I lost 3 packs of Champ “Bronze Gold” type that were in sealed plastic bags but were at that time about 6 years old.  Buyer beware.

Last time I checked, Microscale still made N&W steam decals.

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?
