Re:(erielack) Speedwitch



YELLOW DECALS? But "other" b&w diamonds?  How about the lettering?  Is that white on the "other" decals?  Why yellow at all?

I wonder at the attention paid to running boards, which few will see in HO and fewer will notice, as opposed to yellow lettering, which all will see and, I would hope, more than a few would notice.

Then again -- I'm in O scale and have all the Erie cars I will ever need (all lettered in the correct white) so why do I care?  Because this is history -- that's why!

At the Springfield show last weekend, I picked up a couple of Ted Culotta's new kits for the ERIE, The are postwar AAR box cars, with either an Apex Tri-Lok running board, or a USG running board. . .
You will note that Ted supplies yellow decals, shown on the web page.  But he also supplies other diamonds, black and white, with both the taller gothic lettering and a shorter version with gothic letters, including the 6' diamond they all eventually wore.  In fact, Ted's also selling a nice set of decals:

which will letter up to three cars (if you use all the various size diamonds).
