/in /by

The Central of Georgia Railway Historical Society has produced two new HO scale gondola decal sets: a “1942” set and a “1956” set. The sets are designed specifically for use on 11-panel models such as the Sunshine Models resin kit or the Accurail plastic kit, although they can be adapted to other models, to represent the CofGa’s 18001–18500 series of gondolas built by Pullman in 1930.

 The “1942” set provides lettering for cars painted and stenciled from about 1934 to late 1944 (black cars, rounded reporting marks and numbers, monogram only).

The “1956” set provides set lettering for cars painted and stenciled from 1954 to 1958 (freight car red cars, modified box reporting marks, “The Right Way” slogan, monogram).

The decals sell for $4.25 per set (includes postage) and utilize artwork produced by the Society.
