Model Railroading > UPS 53' container question

Has anyone seen decals for these or is there licensing issues. Looks like it would be easy enough to do.

You do need a licence to do UPS stuff. And they will go after you if you don't have a licence and you make money from the product.
They're not that different then any other big corporation like Boeing and such.

Was just thinking about making 2or 3 for my mail train. Looks like a simple project with some Microscale alphabet sets, but Lord knows I wouldn't want any Buster Brown thugs at the house trying to confiscate HO containers. :-)

Just have decals printed with the acorn and the letters UBS, then paint the lower of the B out lol

Guys,
Atlas has already produced a run of HO scale UPS 53' containers.  
Perhaps Atlas will produce more in the future.

You're making them for your own use, so no problem.
Now make a hundred sets and sell them on ebay, now you have a problem!
