That looks good. It certainly would fit right in with most of the rolling stock that's out there.

Hi jwb It is my understanding from researching conspicuity stripes that you need to double the amount of stripe at the ends of the cars.
Have a stripe no more than 9 feet apart all equally spaced along the car.
They can be mounted horizontally or vertically but must be the same all the way along the car.
Tank cars stripes are to be mounted vertically just below the centreline of the tank in order to reflect car headlights, again with double the amount at the ends.
The majority of stripes are yellow, although white can be used, but requires the application of 50% more material.
Just a quick primer on conspicuity stripes.
