I would like to repaint some rollingstock for the Wabash Railroad and cannot find a good source for the font used. The official name was Ann Arbor serif.
Anyone here have a line on that font or something real close? Attached is a picture of a Wabash boxcar.
Thanks in advance,
Trevor

This one comes up in What the font? - pretty close but different with the serifs. This one looks a bit more like it. Both are not free though...

Wide Latin looks close also, and free.
