HO scale decals (NW Modeling List)

One other factor to consider when the time comes to put together the
decal sheet. Do you include extra builders plates and class badges for
known factory painted models that are lacking them, like the Broadway
A's and J's? Bare in mind I am not expecting an answer on this, just
trying to generate discussion as Shellscale and the Society decide
what needs to be included in the set, and how many of each. But I do
think there will be a market not just for people painting models for
the first time, but also people who have either factory or custom
painted models that they would want to go back and add these details
to. If I have to buy 6 sets to apply builders plates to 8 engines, I
will, but if I could do the same number of engines and only buy 2
sets, that would be great. It all depends on how many decals you have
to arrange on the sheet, or sheets (A lot of Shellscale sets have used
2 sheets).
Also, one revision I like on the most recent Microscale sheet is they
supplied black backgrounds for the builders plates, which makes a big
difference if applying them to an engine with a smoke box that lacks
the boiler jacketing.

While excursion era 611 decals have no interest for me I think Marty
has the right idea. If going for the ultimate steam set then that
should also be a part of it.

 Not to open up a can of worms, because I know some people are
sensitive about this, but any possibility of throwing in a couple of
excursion era graphics for 611 on the decal sheet? For example, decals
for the Robert Claytor plaque and the "I am the thoroughbred of
steam..." sticker?
I'd buy the set either way, but if we are going for the ultimate N&W
steam decal set, why not include as much as possible?

Richard and I have already been discussing this and it will be
correct. Believe me.

 Besides builders and class plates, I am thinking headlight number
boards, number plates, all sizes and designs of steam, cabside
lettering, appropriate tender tank lettering, etc. etc.

include a detailed usage guide so you don't have to guess about which
lettering size goes where.
