One side of me says that post #17 is cool.

But the other side looks at it from a promotional point of view, and thinks that we should have a wagon that stands out and says, "Hey, this is the N Gauge Forum!"

To me, wagons like this are one offs, and are exactly what they are - remembering and promoting.

An NGF wagon rolling around an exhibition layout can't be doing the forum any harm, eh.
Vision over visibility. Bono, U2.

What George means is that the venerable old codgers on 'ere won't be able to tell if it's their GWR, LMS or Southern wagon without 1" high lettering.

Sometimes you bite the dog...

...sometimes the dog bites you!

I can explain it to you...

...but I can't understand it for you.

How about the wording reading something like:

N Gauge Forum
  Hoppy 15

I'm assuming a beer van for this.
Is this a possibility?
Cheers! :beers:
Finally, after waiting over 55 years I am building a permanent layout in a purpose built shed!
