The Reading Modeler is pleased to announce the release of our FOURTH decal set - lettering for Reading Company boxcars in the "Roman" lettering scheme from 1940-1957!  Click on "Read More" for details! 

Our newest decal set is for Reading boxcars in the "Roman" lettering scheme.  This set contains sufficient decals to accurately letter TWO Reading boxcars in the "Roman" paint scheme as shown above.  While this scheme was most prevalent from 1940 to 1957 prior to the advent of "speed lettering," several cars remained in this scheme up into the 1970s.  The following classes of Reading boxcars can be accurately modeled with this decal set:  XMu, XMv, XMw, XMx, XMy, XMz, XMa, XMb and XMc.  A sample of the artwork is provided below:

These Reading Company Roman Boxcar decals are $6.00 per set, including shipping.  You will also receive a 2-page instruction sheet with details on the various classes of these cars along with lettering diagrams to aid in proper placement.  To order, visit the Reading Modeler Company Store to place a secure online order using PayPal, or to download and print an Order Form to pay by check or money order.

Our sincere thanks for your support of The Reading Modeler through the purchase of this decal set.  We hope that you will find these decals useful in accurately modeling this aspect of the Reading's rolling stock fleet, and as always, we'd LOVE to see photo submissions of your Reading boxcars lettered with our decals!
