I posted a similar question on the MR Forum but than thought There might be someone on this forum who has an answer.
Some Reading EMD switchers had 4 digit numbers on the head lights. These are done in both Herald King and Micro Scale decal sets.
I model Penn Central switchers as well and those sets do not support any of these EMD Headlights.
Anyone know if there is a set of general numbers for these EMD Switcher headlights? These are not the same as the larger Geep number boards.
Thanks, Chris

I use N scale decals for those small number boards. I get a little more accurate font that way. Not cost effective by any means, but they serve a purpose when needed.
