Detailing G Scale rolling stock with Seaboard Rail Name

Garden Railroading
1

Hi Everyone,

I am a newbie to the hobby and know next to nothing, maybe even less! I own an ACE Hardware store in Raleigh, NC located in the old Seaboard Railroad depot complex. I have started on a suspended G-Scale set that will run through the store. The store name is Seaboard ACE Hardware and we are expanding on the train theme that we have had for some time. I have collected 12 cars with a variety of rail line names and a GP9 diesel loco (has the Seaboard System name). I want to detail my rolling stock with Seaboard, Seaboard Air Line Railway, or Seaboard System lettering and logos. I am also detailing my rolling stock with names of products we sell like DeWalt, Benjamin Moore, Craftsman, etc, etc. I have been unsuccessful in finding anything related in the way of decals or transfers with the Seaboard related rail line. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Bob King

I am mainly an HO modeler, but do have a garden railroad that has been around since 1989, and I have purchased decals for G gauge/scale in the past. Try googling G gauge trains decals (I tried it) and found several sources. Might give you a starting point.

Thanks Bob, I’ll start my quest. I did a little of that but didn’t get in too deep. Perhaps I need to dig further. Love this forum. Bob King aka ACEGuy

Hi,

I can recommend Stan Cedarleaf custom decals since he did an excellent job on mine and is very reseasonable. Give Stan a try:
