Does anyone have, or can anyone refer me to a site, where the dimensions or outline of a Union Pacific shield number plate, as used on Big Boys and Challengers, can be found? I am looking for the exact shape ( a tracing would be excellent) and measurements.

I'd like to build a plywood copy for my train room, and make a few small copies in cast aluminum for other fans.

Please email any information to [email protected]

Thanks!

I have seen several replicas on Ebay from time to time.

Hey Richard,
Better not let the Utterly Pathetic hear about this. They will knock on your door with the legal drones from the Borg cube hovering over Omaha asking for their percentage for the use of the trade mark.. We may not get trains over the road, but we will extract every penny can from you. Resistance is futile.
