LEGAL DECALS

I AM IN THE PROCESS OF BUILDING SOUTHERN FONTS AND HERALDS TO BE AS DECALS. DO I NEED PERMISSION FROM SOU/NS TO SELL OR DISTRIBUTE THESE? IF SO WHO AND WHERE.

Wayne--I don't believe so. The SRHA provided the original company artwork for the decals that After Hours Decals ran for the NKP Cars kits of the Southern Tennessean cars and I don't remember any permissions or money cahnging hands then. Also, although CSX caused a stir a few years ago by threatening to charge model manufacturers to use their current and past road logos and names it never went anywhere to my knowledge. By the way, let the rest of us know when you get this done as I've had lots of requests for the font and special run decals using it--Larry

It is easier to apologize than ask for permission!
