Thanks to John at Precision Labels we're getting there though! I've designed my own for the van but also included ones on the same sheet to do the Zillertal coaches, the open wagon, the shunter and the Stainz steam engine.
I managed to track down the German technical font, used for these sorts of data panels - and drew the other artwork up by hand.
Here is a sample of what I hope to achieve - the black will be printed as white, the grey is to show up, as these have a clear background. The finished file will be printed by John onto transfer paper using an ALPS printer - to print the white text - and sealed with varnish. You then cut out the transfers with a sharp knife and apply in the usual way - sealing with varnish on the model to protect them.
Just noticed that the typo! EJK&LR should actually be EJ&KLR - just goes to show you can never proof too many times! Good job I caught this before the transfers were made otherwise it would have been a pain to correct on the finished decal sheet!
