Herald King
, the venerable line of silk-
screened decals for HO scale
hobbyists, is once again avail-
able. Although the company was
acquired some time ago, the new
owners elected to spend several
years refreshing the line and digi-
tizing the art work before reintro-
ducing the respected brand. Of the approximately 1,000 decal
sets in the original line, about 75 percent are now available.
Additional information, including a listing of available decals, is
available at the website.
New decal sets recently released by
Microscale
include Department of Defense (DODX) freight cars;
Ferromex Railway (FXE) 53’ container and chassis; TankTrain
(GATX) road numbers for renumbering Athearn Genesis semi-
permanently interconnected TankTrain cars; and Denver &
Rio Grande Western (DRGW) early diesel switchers including
Fairbanks-Morse, EMD, GE, Baldwin, and Alco.
Previously released items that are now back in stock include
decals sets for Union Pacific steam locomotive silver lettering,
and the Santa Fe yellow warbonnet scheme.
