OOps, all that and I uploaded the sort of almost but not quite done version.

Here is the proper version

So I spent the afternoon with MS paint, and when it came time to paste the lettering into the artwork, I discovered that its too long, and not quite the right font. But hey, its close enough for this non-rivet-counter. I just had to alter the image by compressing it horizontally a bit.

That should be good enough to put on an HO Tyco 10 wheeler, if I ever get that far.

Incidentally, MS paint behaves different in Winders 10 then it did in XP (or 7), and that caused me quite some frustration.

Once I settle on the actual colours, its a simple matter to go back into MS paint and change them before I have the thing printed out.

Now I can continue working on my insanity. Thanks guys.

Nope. Me neither. Are you logged in to the https: version of LSC?  If not, that could be our problem.

EDIT: Now that is weird. First time I tried opening I got Page Not Found. Posted the above then tried again and it opened. SMH

Most interesting, David....     I'll attach it here...  

Mick, that's it. Thanks.

Stan, for some reason I am unable to open any of your links.

Double Dupe...  program going wild.. 

Dupe

David, sorry 'bout that...  Try this one..  it's a jpg..  

Stan, for some reason I cannot open the attached file.

Dupe post... 

Yup, yer rite, Dave...    The serifs would need to be added......   File attached from playing around.. 

The Georgia font, at least the version I have, doesn't have the serifs on the top of the A.

A web search shows the examples of the URW Antigua also doesn't have the Serifs.

I may have to draw it out.

Thanks Stan, guys.

Hi Dave...   Try these fonts 

Georgia

URWAntiquaTExbold

They could be part of the RRRoman line but look more like the 2 above...

Holler if you need them.  I can copy them to you in an email..   

The "&" is a special character...  I don't think I've seen that in a "modern" font.  You may have to "draw" the "&"...   Here's a special one that I had to "draw"  

I did a further search and came up with this font for the "&"...  It's very close...    Impossibilium BRK    Easily edited with Photo shop to match the tender... 

A more flat on picture, albeit a blurrier one too.

Kevin, I guess you cannot see the photo posted for some reason.

Thanks Al.

Is there a photo of the font you're looking at? 

Later,

David,

I would think a variant of Railroad Roman. you could try Ben Coffman's Site. he has several variations.
