GP9 Medallion

[NW Modeling List]

What exactly was the size of the lettering and numbers on the Alco's vs. the EMD's and vs. the steam fleet?

Unless Microscale has corrected their art, the 10 inch letters on their 
sets were actually 9 inches. The 8 Inch letters were actually 7 inches. I 
haven't checked those sets lately.
 
Thanks,

Microscale's steam decal has a larger and a smaller size lettering, but  you may need to respace the letters to put them on an RS11
