Didn't think so. N scale is about 20 years behind HO! At least HO has some Baldwins...Think there are a whopping 2-3 models in N...

Very nice work. Did you print your decals on an Alps printer?

I've thought about doing this. I'm in the process of designing decals for F-3s I want to repaint, but I'm not sure I'll be able to get an Alps printer up and running.

If I fail, I'll either use the Champ or Microscale decals.

Yes, an Alps MD-5000. the resolution is up to 2400x2400 which allows very crisp printing at this size. Unfortunately the darn things cost $600+ on ebay.
