CSX YN2 Font

Unread postby ET44C4 » Sun Oct 08, 2017 8:46 pm

Where might I be able to find the font that properly represents the CSX logo used on the YN2 livery?

Thank you

Thank you

If I'm correct the font is Lubalin Graph, but you have to mesh the letters together to get "CSX" correctly on the body. Typing it out won't work.

If anything just use this:

It would probably be easier if I just copied the logo from the image you provided me. Thank you! !!*ok*!!

Note the shades of blue on YN2 and YN3(B) are different. Just a note to take to prevent any color problems. (If you do happen to not know what shade the blue is, it's the blue that's shown in the Miami C40-8W's blue)
