D&RGW Station Sign Font *LINK*

May 09, 2007 06:35PM
I'm in the process of redoing my custom G scale decals to have vinyl signs made...thanks to the latest Garden Railways Magazine.
Since I'm redoing them I'd like to know what font (or a close approximation) the D&RGW used on their narrow gauge depots (circa 1947-51) so I can make them more realistic.
I'm assuming there was a system standard since they appear to be the same style of lettering in photos.
Looking at my decals it appears I used a font called CopprplGoth Bd BT. It's not bad but if I can, I'd like to do better.
I included a link to a minimized photo of the decal sheet I've made. This has worked great using my own computer and a laser printer. But the decals only last about a year out in the elements even after being sealed. That's why vinyl should solve my problem of having to redecal every year.
Thanks,
Matt Doti
