I discovered the paint used on 1701 isn't the same as 1725. On 1701, "Canadian National" is a decal as are the CNR roundel and yellow wings (not the roof yellow patches). Also, 95% alcohol don't attack the paint but the decals. It means one could carefully remove the decals, including the number boards, using 95% alcohol without altering the paint.
JWB, that means you can easily renumber your engine as a Central Vermont one. However, I suggest one wishing to do so test it in an invisible place to not ruin the model. It only applies to 1701, the first batch issues by Bachmann.
