Here is my first attempt on the Brake Cylinder's back: 14" (Cylinder's diameter) and  numbers/letters than I can't tell now what they are :D It's a bit rough on the pic, but good enough for my eyes... I used a good pic as reference and the symbols wasn't better.  ;D


Edit:
There's no glory to do this like that, only the result counts!  :) "Does someone know where I could find some casting symbols for modeling?"

Pfft, I've seen pattern lettering on full sized castings that were totally illegible.  Your's look fine.

Thanks!

I'm pretty happy with the Brake Cylinders: They look heavy...


Next update: 2014!
Happy holidays

Great work! I'm amazed at how much detail you've put into them. They look much larger than 1/24th scale.
