I want to make an N-scale decal.

Odd placement of the "and". I would have expected a crescent "and" to be directly above "Maine", as is usually the case with crescented defining words in signs. The way that it's positioned looks like it would have been better as a slanted straight "and" left to right, top to bottom, towards "Maine" - but who am I to criticize ! :P

I hadnt ever realized the AND was arched. I thought is was diagonal.
never had a good enough pic
here is the bmcdr's image rotated and cropped.
I measured the logo an a Model Power N scale engine, it measures .297 x .267 which is
almost exactly scale 4 feet across and 3'6" tall .
This image measures .300 x .260. I think that will work.
