Your attention to detail and painting is very nice! What manufacturer is the shell? I acquired an O scale MTH E6 ABA set of Missouri Pacific Lines engines a couple of years ago. Your attention to detail exceeds that of the factory painted engines that I own.

I too have looked for O scale MoPac decals for several years. I had success with the following company:

CMR Products LLC
Phone number: (724)992-2035

Scott or Sasha are good contacts. They are willing to custom design decals if you are patten and willing to spend a little extra money for design work. I think that their prices are very reasonable, and their decal quality is excellent. The company address is as follows:

4238 William Flynn Hwy.
Harrisville, PA 16038-1412

Email address is [email protected] for Scott

Good luck!

I certainly don’t have any technical information on the Bicentennial engines, but thought I would ask a Bicentennial-related question. I waited for several years for Union Pacific to finally give authorization to model railroad decal producers to create O scale Bicentennial decals. Once produced, I ordered decals and commenced painting some MoPac Bicentennial engines. They are certainly not prototypical, but have a Bicentennial paint scheme close enough for my o gauge layout. Now that the engines are completed, I am curious to know how they were used on the MoPac system. Were they used only on freight trains, or were they utilized on any Bicentennial passenger trains. If utilized for passenger service, what did the passenger cars look like? If I can find pictures, I am inclined to paint Bicentennial-related passenger cars if I can find appropriate decals.
