Wanted transfers for BR wagon numbers in G3

[geoff_nicholls]

I know other people have had problems sourcing lettering etc for gauge 3 wagons, but I thought I'd have no problems with the batch of BR wagons I've just finished. Needing only the letters T P B and E and the numbers, in white I thought I shold be able to pop into a specialist stationery shop in London and choose something suitable off the shelf.
no such luck. I may be putting the wrong words into google, even amazon doesn't seem to sale them. Does anyone know where I can get suitable(or near enough) white lettering (preferably dry transfers) in 3mm, 4mm and 5mm?

Hi Geoff,

drop an email to John Peck - Precision Decals

He does 'one offs' and has an Alpsa printer which does excellent white printing and should be able to do the numbers that you need.

Fox do a large range of general alphabets as well as specific railway transfers, but they are not rub-down.
Three different fonts 3mm high, for instance:
Browse through our range of alphabet transfers for any of your modelling needs.

I rang Fox Transfers and ordered a G3 set they'd done for brake vans, unfortunately it didn't include 'XP'. however I might be able to trim the 'SHARK' characters.

Thanks, Ian, I'd checked their website, but hadn't found that file. I'll follow that up.

More use of Fox's Transfers sheet FRH13993, though I should have completed the painting the wagon first, and should have noticed the picture I found online was actually a six plank.
