I have two blue box athearns (GP38-2 and GP40-2) but lack number boards.  Where can I acquire number boards?

OR do you mean the clear plastic insert is missing? In that case, Ebay.

Good Luck, Ed

Thanks Ed, you're always very helpful!  One is missing the plastic insert and both are lacking numbers to apply to the number boards.

Glad to help.

I don't know if these will fit exactly for Blue Box cabs but Laserkit makes "glass" for Athearn engines.

Good luck, Ed
