Enough lettering is supplied in this decal set to letter one car.

A sampling of different CAPY blocks and re-weigh dates are included for variety including both the CB&Q and BN era. These workhorses ran well into the 80s.

If you happen to have the long-sold-out CB&Q Historical Society "Burlington Bulliten" #20, there are several great photos of these cars in the issue. Don't have that? Here are some quick photo links to get you started on the Internet:
