Highlights

The plain keystone was hand drawn by our stencil maker,
Charlie Pellegrino of Pellegrino Signs, in Lambertville, NJ
(609-397-2889).

Because the keystone was hand drawn, it was made up of several pieces of vinyl. So it went on last, on a day when I had a lot of time and patience!

Charlie also hand drew the car numbers because a computer-based font was not available. He also made hand adjustments to some of the stencils. This attention to detail produced a quality job.


 




The stencilling method used here was the same as the one used to letter the flat car. Again, The PRR's wide use of drawings and lettering arrangment prints allowed us to produce a very accurate "as built" stencil job.
