Water decals are an eye sore on a beautiful restoration and would use ink stamps instead.
Years ago Janice Bennett took over for her father who was licensed by Lionel to make dry transfers after her father passed she took over for brief period of time then stopped altogether , she mentioned this in her letter to me when i had bought some from her the displeasure she had with Lionel.
Her dry transfers were spot on and look very real , still have some including for our 156 electric and have done some steam engines as well.
They are very old still stored in original package and look like the day bought and at a very very reasonable price back then.
