PRR Steam Decal Help - N scale

Good Afternoon,

I find myself in need of some PRR steam decal set guidance - I'm needing something to match an BLI T 1 in the 4 stripe scheme. 

My thought was to appeal to the experts on here...

Thanks in advance,

Justin Sobeck

For what?  I did the L&P art for the BLI and am not sure there have been decals made in N for the T1.

Do they have to be an EXACT match (as in, you are repairing a BLI engine)?
If they just need to be very close for a new tender,  ...

Is Fine-N-Scale still making their decals? (They have them on their website).

About 1000 years ago, when I scratchbuilt my T-1, I used Fine-N-Scale PRR Passenger Car Decals, item #2600.
The set includes various widths of stripes in a good color for the T1 tender.  The long "PENNSYLVANIA" text was a good
match from that set also.

Not an exact match, as it's not a spot repair, but I'd like to be in the ballpark of the right shade of gold to not have leaf vs. deluxe appearance issues.

It's a 3D printed long distance aux tank to trail a T-1.
