Welcome!!

Welcome to the new Coal Belt Decals website.  We figured that since we got a new address, maybe it was time for a new look for the site as well.  We did not change any of the page names or other content, but only the appearance of the site.  We sure hope that you like it !!!
 

More New Decals Announced

With much help from Mr. Anthony Hardy, we have introduced a series of decals for the L&N PS-3 3-bay 15-panel 80-ton hoppers. There are numerous sets in this series due to many differences in the prototypes, and thanks to Mr. Hardy's help, we will (eventually) have all the varieties for ya'll. Right now, we have 4 of the potential 8 sets available for sell, and they are defined on a table so you can pick the correct set. Each set has subtle differences based on date built, builder, and many other items. If you are confused about which set to purchase, please email us at coalbeltdecals@cs.com.

New Product Line Announcement

We would like to announce that a new product line will be joining the CBD family - COAL. Well, acutally, the product is coal slag, but it looks like prototype coal in the hopper cars. We will be offering this in two different sizes, one larger size (like lump or block coal in HO scale) and one smaller size (more like stoker or "flood loaded" coal in HO scale). Please visit this new section if you're interested in this product.

New page on this site... "WANTED"

We have posted a new page here on the Coal Belt Decals website where you can help us.  It's a list of specific things that we need to either begin, complete or update a decal set that we have.  Please follow this link to the WANTED page and see if there is anything there that you can help us with.

As always, our "Finders Fee" for supplying information is between 2 and 5 or the decal sets you help us make, and is negotiable based on the information.


This site has been assembled to show off our decal sets, both currently available and future releases.

Please follow the links on the left side to help you find the information you are here to find. For instance, our Prototype Information Pages contain more details about the decal's prototypes than what you received with your sets. Please leaf through these to see if you find something that helps you.

Another section you might find useful is the Paint Color Information, which includes a Paint Chart and a table which shows what chemicals to use for stripping paint off a particular model. Any suggestions or comments you have would be welcomed for either of these sections, just email us.


If you want to order any of the current sets, wish to profess your desires for a future set, or have any suggestions for new or improved sets, please feel free to email us at coalbeltdecals@cs.com
