Just wanted to add there's a very nice larger scale, 1950s-60s single deck Greyhound bus originally from Dioramix, you might still find it on the Wayback Machine.

Minimodel.cz also had periodic theme design contests, and one included a very detailed 1:100 Scenicruiser - their PNG files usually scale up very well. If you can use that, scroll down this webpage:

If you are using a PC with Windows, Microsoft has a print to pdf program/app. To check just select to print it and go to the drop down menu that shows your printer options. Your default printer will probably be the one selected. Open the menu and see if "save as pdf" or "print to pdf" is an option.

I just opened one of the png files in photoshop and it is shown as being 72 dpi so it wouldn't enlarge very well. On the plus side, it's canvas measures close to 29 1/2 (75.11cm) inches by 44 3/4 inches (113.74cm) so the coach sides measure over 18 inches! :-D

Printed at size, the graphics are not very sharp but as the model is reduced, that will sharpen up. I printed on an 8.5x11 inch piece of printer paper using draft setting just to see how it would look before reducing.

Right now I do not have a printer
Had a good Print only HP from Wal-Mart, but it started acting odd
Tried getting it fixed, but.....
Now have 3 pair of cartridges for it and.....
Looking at a new one but None take the same cartridge!!
Will try for a refurbished model


Not sure that will work at Library though

had something to print one time, and it saved as an Off file type
NOTHING could open it
pdf was Not an option either

I will have to check my wind-up toy (laptop) and tower to see if one will do that

and yes I would love to up-scale the model
but.....
at such a low resolution, and being such and Old model,
it will loose a lot of appeal in the appearance
