[Industries1]

What decals could I use for the WP boxcar specifically "WP" and "Road number" for this car:

Microscale Decal 90231 Gothic lettering is close for thev "WP" and the number   The "1" is not correct.

EDIT  Railroad Roman not Gothic

 

A herald from Microscale 1444 Steam Locomotives might work.

Microscale Decal 90231 Gothic lettering...

I'm guessing that you meant Microscale Railroad Roman.   The serif on top of the "1" is easily altered.  I probably have some Champ Railroad Roman that would be suitable, too.  I'll check, and if so, can send it to you.

I notice that the "1" in that set is incorrect, too.

You could also take a look at this Microscale WP set:

I'd guess-timate that the letters and numerals are about 22" tall, which is about 7/32" in HO.  The largest I have, in white, for Champ decals is only 5/32". 
I do have some Woodland Scenics dry transfers, numerals and alphabets, at a height of 1/4", but the stroke-width of both are narrower than those on the photo, and, again, the top of the "1" is incorrect.

Champ's Railroad Roman does have the proper style "1", though, I just don't have it in the size you need.  However, there are still Champ alphabet decals available - I picked up several complete sets, alphabets and numerals, last week at my local hobby shop, possibly from an estate lot, and they appear to be in excellent condition.  I wasn't looking for lettering as large as you need, but I'll check there again tomorrow if I have time.

This looks like a winner, Thanks

I did check for the decals today, but what was left of the like-new lot from which I found mine, is now completely gone.  You may be able to find some on-line, and I can also supply contact info for a person selling Champ decals - he bought the entire stock from another nearby (and now defunct) hobbyshop, and may have what you need.  Drop me a PM if you're interested.
