Question for B&O modelers
Author: pennsy3750

What's available in terms of decals for steam-era freight cars in HO?  I model 1951-52, so I believe the Capitol Dome heraled with "13 Great States" slogan was the prevailing image at that time, correct?  Looking to letter up a couple of hoppers, if that makes a difference. 

Thanks in advance.

You should be OK, although quite a few hoppers were running with the earlier Kuhler Capitol Dome. Make sure that you take the right size, not every hopper type had the same size of logo. In the past I have used champs decals, close enough, although the B&O had their own letter font not reproduced faithfully be the better known decal companies.
