FGE Fruit Growers Express 50'
RBL Boxcars Decal Sets:
SE-22 : $14.00 FGE 50' RBL
Boxcars #1 1963-65+ ( ACL, B&O, C&EI, RBNX, RF&P, SAL
)
SE-23 : $14.00 FGE 50' RBL Boxcars #2
1963-65+ ( B&O, CG, L&N, N&W, PC, SOUTHERN )
SE-24 : $14.00 FGE 50' RBL Boxcars #3 1970s+ ( C&NW, CRR,
MILW, NS, SOUTHERN, SCL, WP )
These three decal sets are aimed at lettering the
Moloco FGE 50' 10' Door RBL in an assortment of FGEX schemes. (Of
course, the lettering is also applicable to other FGE cars as
well..)
The dates above are a general guide, and I include as much extra
data as I could on these sheets, including many return route
boxes. The sets are *huge*. Each decal set contains over 55
square inches of decal goodness. They are beautifully screen
printed, and an example of each railroad scheme layout is shown
on the included lettering diagram.

SE-22 FGE 50' RBL Boxcars
#1 1963-65+ ( ACL, B&O, C&EI, RBNX, RF&P,
SAL )
This set will letter up to 3 different cars. (3 full
stripe cars, includes both FRUIT GROWERS EXPRESS - INSULATED and
"Insulated-Cushioned FRUIT GROWERS EXPRESS" lettering)
It covers examples from ACL (1964+), B&O (1964+), C&EI
(1964+), RBNX (1963+), RF&P (1965+), SAL (1965+) I threw in
some SCL data as well, since the SCL merger sneaks up fast in
1967...
Yes, the above photo is one complete set of SE-22
!
SE-23 FGE 50' RBL Boxcars
#2 1963-65+ ( B&O, CG, L&N, N&W, PC,
SOUTHERN )
This set will letter up to 3 different cars: (2 full
stripe cars -- "FRUIT GROWERS EXPRESS - INSULATED" and
one simplified "Insulated-Cushioned FRUIT GROWERS
EXPRESS" car) It covers examples from B&O (1971+), CG
(1963+), L&N (1968+), N&W (1965+), PC (1970+), SOUTHERN
(1965+). I also included some PRR lettering, as I know the PRR
had similar 10' Door cars -- I just haven't seen a photo yet...
The above photo shows everything included in one set of
SE-23 !
SE-24 FGE 50' RBL Boxcars #3
1970s+ ( C&NW, CRR, MILW, NS, SOUTHERN, SCL, WP )
This set will letter up to 6 different simplified all-yellow
repainted cars. This set includes second-hand patch schemes, so
my dates are approximate based on the information as I go to
press: C&NW (at least 1978+), CRR (at least 1974+), MILW
(1979+), NS (1974+), SOUTHERN (1975+), SCL (1973+), WP/WPRX (at
least 1980+)
The above photo is everything included in one set of SE-24 !
The lettering in these sets is extensive, and includes as many
real return routes as I could squeeze in based on actual photos.
The lettering in the SE-22/23/24 sets is fully cross-compatible,
so you can use reporting marks in one and full stripes in another
to model specific versions of paint scheme not included above.
For example, this NS 92161 below is wearing a 1972 paint job, so
you can combine the NS lettering from SE-24 with the 70s full
stripe lettering from SE-23:
Cost: $14.00 per set. Available in HO Scale only.
