Model Railroading > Santa Fe Reefer DecalsDate: 07/11/21 22:52 Santa Fe Reefer Decals Author: santafesteve Does anyone know of anyone who is making decals for 40' ice bunker repainted reefers with the large, 8' Santa Fe logo. All the ones I can find are 8/12' and 9' witch is to large for the car.

Microscale makes these with the 8' herald. Don DeLay P. S. I just rechecked the dimensions, forgot about that extra 6" on left of scale rulers. These are 8'.6" in diameter. I need to do some ATSF 40' ice reefers too. Never checked the decal against the car side, how bad off is it? Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 07/12/21 09:21 by trackplanner.

The herald on a Intermountain 40' reefer with the large herald it is 8'.I also bought some of the other decal sheets that Microscale printed and the black heralds are all 9'. I have a number of Intermountain kits to put together that are duplicate numbers and I would like to paint them uo with the large herald but no decals ,that i can find, were produced.
