[SML] Scenery Labeling

[Patrick Drone]

Wow! That show puts me in the WayBack Machine. I barely remember building it.  I was at Virginia Scenic for over 6 years. For labels we bought full sheet label material and put it through a laser printer for our company info. When we mounted them we used super 77 even with the labels already being sticky back. I recall occasionally we had a local printer make them for us. But, the other writing is just Sharpie!
