Best Decals For Athearn Santa Fe Covered Hoppers

[Anonymous]

I have several Athearn Santa Fe Covered Hoppers, with a built date of 12/66 and reporting marks listing the cars as ATSF 309693. For those PS 54' cars, does anyone have any suggestions on what the best match would be so that I could change out some of the reporting marks. Ideas on the right set of decals that I need to get? Any help would be much appreciated!

You might want to try these. Microscale produces a great decal and tend to stay on IF applied correctly.

Oddballs decals has an extensive line of ATSF decals with many of the modern hopper cars represented.
To be correct you would need a decal for the 4740 cu ft hopper as that is what the PS Covered Hopper represents.
If you have an ACF that is another story which should be a 5200 cu ft car which I do not know if the Santa Fe had
any.
