NW-2 Lettering
« on: June 19, 2012, 09:30:14 pm »
I have missplaced my lettering guide. Can someone help me?
What is the measurements of the white MONON lettering on the hood side of the B&G NW-2s?
What is the size of the white numbers on the cab side?

Thank you !

Only for some NW’s.  Others (see attached) had their hood lettering 6" from the top of the gold stripe!

Thanks Tim.

I went with the final scheme used on the #13 and #16, black monon on the cab side.
