Sweedish State Railways T44 PDF Print E-mail

I must be in a diesel mood today... scary thought. Anyway, Thomas Selander has built a LEGO version of a Swedish State Railways version of a T44 diesel electric freight locomotive.  I love the subtle details, the striking livery, and even the short depth-of-field presentation.  He's done a fine job building this MOC, illustrated with the picture of the prototype in-frame.

    Hello,

    This is a wonderful MOC. It called my attention due to the window. I've never seen that part!

    Can someone tell me what's the part number for it?

    Thanks!!

    Those are just standard windscreens 2x6x2, with a special decal I made.

    Thanks for the info, Thomas!

    Could you please pass some information on how to do that kind of decals, please?

    I use a drawing program called AutoCad, which is a 2D program to design technical stuff. I draw my decals in scale 1:1 and apply colours according to actual colour scheme. After I print on white paper or transparent with adhesive on the back (etiquet paper) in normal colour laser printer. you also need some patience and a small pair od scissors. Good luck !
