Going away from beer !!!

I've decided to recreate a standard gauge Land O' Lakes 40ft Wood Reefer, much in the livery done, a while back, for the Clear Creek Narrow Gauge. !*brav*!

Hi Harry,

.... 95 % on Internet. The job is not as glamour as one may think - lots and lots of research hours cross referencing with different key words and each time I come accross an interesting image I save it on an external hard disk within my huge image library. It may come handy at any time.

Same with a font that could be of historical context.

... I have a luxury - I'm retired !!jabber!!
