At least I can stick to PRR at the club. A note of caution-when thinking about a name for your RR, consider what will be involved in applying the name to your loco's and railway cars i.e. length of name, logo if any, letters required, font size, space available etc., individual letter decal'ing vs custom decals, dry transfers vs wet decals etc. I've found that decal'ing "Grizzly Northern" on loco tenders by individual letter wet decals takes a lot of patience and time, and eats up a lot of decal sheets - only two zz's to a sheet for a given size! I've settled for "GNR" on the GNR's freight cars - much easier, and cheaper. But it's worth it-developing your own RR name and applying it to equipment is part of the fun for you and visitors! Writing a scenario and a history for your RR can also be a fun part of MR'ing. __________________
